I think it can be either... I have a friend whose little boy is called Ellis, but I have also seen it in the births column of the local paper as a girls' name.. I don't think it matters, anyway, it's how you feel about it that matters. Tell the people who are arguing with you to mind their own chuffing business.. there are so many busybody know it all's around, aren't there?

ps, when I named my first son, all my hubby's family were aghast, as it was then an old fashioned Welsh name. They came to visit us in Cyprus, and MiL made my life very uncomfortable with her continual comments... you choose your child's name because it is a special name to you.... ignore them, Charlie. xxxxx Daff

I have only known one person with this name....a young girl called Ellis

but I'm sure it's an OK name for either sex.
