When people learn the first name we've chosen for our little girl, they always ask, "Is that a family name?" as if the aesthetic qualities or connotations of a certain name are not good enough reasons to choose it. I mean, there are some Eleanors in the family, but no one we are naming our daughter after.
We really just like the name Eleanor.
And I think Eleanor Anne sounds especially nice.
And it really is just a happy coincidence that my daughter will share her first name with the woman who said this. Simply brilliant. I love it.

The first grandchild born to my parents (my brother and sister-in-law's little girl) is also an Eleanor...Ellie. It's a beautiful name!
