Question:What are some names that are close to Nell (my grandmother's name) - that's where I kind of came up with Neeley (from a previous question). My husband's name is Brent and I like the name Brynn. Any suggestions?

your question got placed in two different areas... including here in genealogy. Nell is sometimes a nickname for Eleanor.
Since I do lots of genealogy, I had lots of ancestor names to use, and all of my 3 kids have names that come from family.
When you do have kids, we might tempt you to trace family. It's a cool thing to have for kids to know.

Neil?
