I kmew an
Ellen as a kid! She was older than me by a few years, so she'd be thirty-something by now. I thought she was sooo cooool. We were "cabin neighbours" - our families had cottages near to each other. She was sporty, adventurous, and strong, but so kind, friendly and warm-hearted. A very generous soul. It's given me a good assocation with the name
Ellen ever since.
I agree, give
Ellen a chance!
