We actually that it was pronounced e lie yah, like Eli Manning but if you like it spelled that way just inform people to correct way to pronounce, I like both ways, I even liked it when I thought it was prounounced the other way, Give all kids hugs & kisses, Taylor was blowing kisses to the screen as we speak!
I was pronouncing it right in my head. I think the one L references her ethnicity a bit more so I would keep that. I don't know what it would sound like in Portuguese but it would be really confusing in Spanish with the two Ls. My two-cents. =)
oh my, cute new photo of the 3 kids. she already has her arms extended to both boys. so sweet. and i love the blanket...is it a hannita one? if so, i've probably already seen it and commented...but i have mommy brain so i'll say it again. love the blanket. (and no contributing thoughts about the spelling)
hey Heidi! Angela told me about your news! how wonderful! I'm so happy for you guys! As far as spelling goes, my brain was thinking like Gerogann's. And I do think that two Ls would help that, because "ellie" is a little more common. But...Hanna has a point too, with the ethnicity. Chances are, no matter how you spell it, you'll constantly be pronouncing it for everyone anyway. We have that Brielle, and I thought that seemed easy. So spell it how you like it! :) We're praising God for this new blessing!

I vote for one L. I just think the appearance of the name looks lovelier w/ one L. I am not sure why but I just does.
Grandma says I like it with one l...closer to Elijah. And I was pronouncing it correctly. the pictures are so cute!
