Help[Opinions] Re: Elery (m)
in reply to a message by hyacinthus
It's also Every with L for V, and Eleri with a Y.
Just seems like a surname name to me. Doesn't remind me of Eliot, only of Ellery. I think if it were on a small child I would tend to assume it was in the same category as Avery and Chase and Taylor and Hudson (trendy/pretentious phonebook surnames). I would also expect people IRL to mispronounce it as EEL-ery, just because I've observed that people very often respond to unconventional spellings by trying out unconventional pronunciations.
But no, it's not particularly soft. Just not particularly masculine, and unfortunately seems trendy if it were used for a baby now. It's alright, and I think it would grow up fine. NMS.
