I like it, but not for my daughter. The reason is that my grandmother's name is Louisa, my aunt's name is Louise (after my grandmother), my great-grandmother (on my father's side, the others were on my mother's side) was named Louisa, and my middle name is Louise.

And I know Eloise is similar to Louise, but it's also different. That extra EL sets it apart.

Yet I can't picture calling my girl Eloisa.
