Have you seen "Somewhere In Time"? Lead character, Elise McKenna, a 1912 stage actress portrayed by Jane Seymour, responds to her agent's overbearing behavior by saying, quite forcibly, "I am not a doormat. Do not attempt to wipe your boots on me." And later, breaks from her touring company, where she is a star performer, to pursue the love of her life.

Yes. Not only did I see "Somewhere in Time," but it debuted in 1980, right around when my friends and I would have been dicussing names. I never thought that might have been where they got their love for the name Elise. The character's name never really registered with me at the time I watched it though. I liked the production, especially the music. But looking back now I can say that it doesn't really change my mind about the name Elise. Sorry.
