How many ways to spell elise

Go with Elyse if you're worried, but definitely not Alyse -- it's an alternative spelling of Alice and I'm sure you're aware of the trend of creative spellings. I think especially in today's society, Alyse is going to read as Alice. It also has the added bonus of looking "made up" which connotes a lack of refinement in many opinions. This also reminds me of a friend who has Elise as a middle name. I've seen Elyse plenty or times so it doesn't look made-up or odd to me at all, and I like how it looks a bit better.

Both Elyse or Elise are fine, so go with whichever you prefer. Yes, Elsie may happen but I don't think it will be a huge issue. I disagree with this for this particular name. If anything. I've seen Elyse used far more often than Elise, so to me it looks more "right". Different strokes.

I've seen this spelling twice, as a friend's middle name and a schoolmate's first. I've also known an Alyce, pronounced Elise. I still prefer the Elise spelling because, to me personally, it looks "clean. I agree that you should stick with Elise, the classic spelling. I don't think people will confuse it with Elsie very often at all.

Search for a Name. Replies 1. By Emerald Bee. By Jill. People with the name number five are sociable, open minded, mentally alert and friendly. This name number is most effective when it occurs together with the destiny number 5 as the double numerological fives will give birth to a very successful person. Both name number and destiny number five are similar in that they consider the pleasurable aspects of life to be a natural part of life.

They find it easy to learn and to master their profession. They could not imagine life without extensive social contacts. First is to know how each letter in the English alphabet is pronounced. Once you know what sound all letters make it becomes much easier to spell names like Elise.

Second is to read more. It is not important what texts you read, but the more it is the better you remember how things are written. When spelling bigger words or names try to separate some letters and see if it makes sense this way.

If you want to remember how to spell Elise then write it down a couple of times. All rights reserved. I imagine that at times when you call for Louisa, Elise will come running instead.

That would be the bigger issue for me than having Elise accidentally called Elsie from time to time. Personally, I think the first would be more annoying because I think it would happen more often. Elise is a beautiful name and I do like the spelling Elise and think of it as the traditional spelling whereas Elyse is not. However, I disagree that Elise and Louisa are too similar. Eloise is, but not Elise.

I love your naming style! I just asked my friend Elsie, and she says people call her Elise all the time. I know two little girls — one Elise and one Elyse. My dear sister is named Elise.

She loves her name, and I asked my mother- she still loves it too. Good luck! I would change it to Alice Catherine. It sounds similar to Elise but stands out from Louisa. I do agree with some previous commenters that Elise might be a bit close to Louisa for my taste, but perhaps not for yours. If I had a daughter named Louisa would I name a following daughter Elise? Maybe not. I would probably go with a combination of the other lovely names on your list. Clara, Louisa and Adelaide.

Love this! However, I do remember that a friend named Brian complained about constantly getting typos of his name so it would come out Brain. So there may be typos where Elise gets transposed to Elsie but that would not be s big enough problem to change the spelling of the name. I am not sure about Elise in your sibset though. It seems a bit close to Louisa not nearly as similar as Eloise would be though and strikes me as a bit s maybe because of the sitcoms Family Ties.

Of the names you considered, I love Rose — both on its own and in your sibset. Clara, Louisa, and Rose are stunning together. I love the name and like both spellings, with a slight preference for Elise. I think Elise is beautiful with your sibling set and disagree that it is too similar to Louisa. In my opinion, with feminine names like these, especially ones that end in -a like Louisa or that could end in -a like Elisa , running together is always a possibility. I voted to keep Elise, but I think either spelling is just fine.

I know one Elise and one Elyse and I thought they were both standard. I find Elise and Luisa similar, but not similar enough to not use Elise if you love it. Either way you and your husband have chosen stunning names for you children. My best friend is named Elise and never been called anything else except Elise.
