Ella Christine vs. Yes? vs. No?

So I’ve posted a couple of polls over the last couple of days and my husband/me/family CAN NOT seem to agree on a name for our daughter. We are DEFINITELY naming her after my grandmothers - Marcella and Christine. However, my husband and I aren’t crazy about the name Marcella as-is. We both like the name Ella (as a variation of Marcella) and that seems to be the only name any of us seem to agree on but we are worried that it’s too rhyme-ish with our last name. I posted Ella before and almost all responses were positive...except for one. That one response has kind of stuck with me. What do you think of the name ELLA CHRISTINE BURNELL? We will most likely call her Ellie or Ellie Christine. If the response is no for Ella, please suggest any other variations of Marcella (MUST BE A VARIATION OF MARCELLA) that we aren’t thinking of, other than Marcy -- my husband can’t stand that name (no offense to any Marcys). THANK YOU!

Ella is perfect. Ella Burnell sounds fine to me. Ellie is a darling nickname. Best of luck!

Ella is wonderful, I wouldn’t give her the nickname Ellie simply because I love the name Ella, but do what you’d like.

Some variations suggestions, if you’re interested:
Mariella
Milla/Mila (pronounced either Mill-uh or My-luh)
Mariana
Marissa
Maricia (pronounced Marissa, but has the c in Marcella)
Celia
Calla
Cella

I really like Milla, Celia, and Calla.

My soon-to-be daughter will be named Calla (=

I like Ella Christine. It sounds really pretty together. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with Ella Burnell.
