Anyone else spot this post at Swistle? The couple is looking for a name for baby #2, a little sister for Adelie, nicknamed Addie.
It’s a name I’ve heard once or twice of late, and I’ve been wondering about Adelie. My favorite Adel- name is Adelaide, but it’s a huge category, from surname Addison to sweet Adeline to the inevitable Adalyn. Just Ada or Addie are options, too, and Adalie certainly owes something to the popularity of the unrelated, but similar-sounding, Natalie.
Back to Adelie. The parents of Adelie describe the name as “classic and sophisticated.” Swistle perceives Adelie as “a modern invented name.” Both Nameberry and Meilleurs Prenoms associate Adelie with Adele, though Behind the Name doesn’t list Adelie at all.
And so I ask, Adelie: Yea or Nay?
Heidi screams of the Swiss Alps, but how about this unusual related name?

Ava is an unstoppable Top Ten choice. Parents are rediscovering Ida, too. But if you find Ava too popular and Ida too retro, today’s choice might just be the perfect compromise.
Thanks to Sophie for suggesting Ada as Name of the Day.
