Letter to my family and friends in Oct-Nov 2007 abot Nelly
My mother Lunia liked the name Nelly and suggested it earlier for our cocker spaniels and Nel if we got a son.
I found that the name Nelly \n(el)-ly\is pronounced NEL-ee and is ofEnglish origin. It is a short form of Helen(a), Eleanor ( Greek) " light".
Nelly has 9 variant forms: Nel, Nelida, Nell , Nella , Nellene , Nellie , Nellwen, Nellwin and Nellwyn .
Now I got 3 girls Natasha, Nanna and Nelly...
Love
