|  |     I just happen to have my babyname book here because my office mate
    returned it (half our group is pregnant!).  It says that Ellen is
    an English form of Helen and Helen is Greek and means "light".
    Kyle is Irish Gaelic for "handsome;from the strait" according to
    them.
    
    Kyle has been fairly popular in the past few years, but I don't
    hear of many little Ellen's these days.  I know a few grown up
    ones and always thought it was a nice name.

    I quess to be "different" these "baby-boomer" days, means to go
    back to names that were popular in the 40's and 50's.
    
    Actually, my sister just likes 'Ellen' because it's simple and
    it's my grandmother's name. I'm not crazy about it, but a least
    she'll let me call her Elly.

    	I checked my babyname book and it also has meanings for
    	Ellen as cheery, enthusiastic, and determined.  Talk about
    	alot of good things packed into one name.  
    
    	However, there wasn't anything listed for Kyle, but I 
    	like the name.

|  |     I gave birth to my little Ellen on February 27! (and she is certainly
    determined!) We like the name because it is simple and fitting for
    both a girl and a woman. These cutie names for girls....

| 141.5 | Ellen?  Yuck... | DANUBE::E_FINKELSEN |  | Mon May 02 1988 11:58 | 5 | 
|  |     My nephew's name is Kyle. 
    
    I personally never liked the name Ellen.

| 141.8 | Kyle | SASE::SOULARD | Suspended animation, a state of bliss | Fri Feb 23 1990 14:55 | 6 | 
|  |     I really like the name Kyle.  I liked a boy when I was in school and
    his name is Kyle - VERY cute, blonde hair and piercing blue eyes.
    
    Wonder what he's up to now??? 8^)
