I just think the name is unattractive. I think
Lotte is a cute-as-a-bug nickname for it, though. I like seeing
Lotte used outside of the context of
Charlotte.
I'm feeling particularly flexible on
Elliot as a gender-switcher after having seen the origin of
Emmett. It's a little unusual to see a name that comes from a surname derived from a feminine name. Interesting, I think. I always pair
Emmet and
Elliot together as being more or less the same name because they feel exactly the same to me with their aesthetic similarities and how they "feel," if that makes sense.
