[*Ang*]

In DD's kindy class last year there were 2 Ella's and one Jessica. I also know of a couple of other Ella's all in the up to 5 year old range.

I thought i would let you know, in my daughters kindy class and the other class there is a total of 5 ella's and 3 jessicas. My niece has 4 ellas in her yr 1 class. Ella is realy popular at the moment.

AT my current day care (SW Bris) 3 Jessicas; 2 staff, 1 [adorable!] child. No Ellas
At last day care (Inner East Melb) 1 Jessica, 1 Ella
At the one before that (Inner South Melb) 1 Jessica, 4 Ellas.

So, even though the stats say they're super-common, I actually think you're pretty safe with either.

At one place that had 2 Ellas, they were referred to as Ella-Grace and Ella-Rose, their middle names, rather than "Ella A" and "Ella B" (which I HATE!)

I know two Ella's under the age of 5 and one Jessica . I definitely see the name Ella around more than I do Jessica, though I do love the name Ella!

I have two cousins who named their daughters Ella.....the girls are about three yrs apart though.

As for Jessica it was always the name I was going to name a duaghter if I had one...but for some reason not anymore...still lurve it though!

I know 2 Jessica's- a cousin and a friend from school (both older).
My 9 month old neice is called Ella- and apparently there is another Ella in her mother's group.

Funny - I know LOTS of Jessica's, and no Ella's. Guess the trends are a little different in Canada. Both lovely names though!
