The much awaited Most Popular Elf names is now released. Compiled with extensive Elf census data the list reveals the most popular names for Elves this year.
North Pole & Christmas inspired names have increased in popularity and as always traditional names relating to the weather and the festive season remain a hot choice. Snowy, last year’s number one has dropped 22 positions being the largest change on the list. Tinsel remains a strong favourite, Neddy is static as an enduring classic and the less-expected Elfman has burst onto the list as a newcomer…
Barry, Garry and Elfie the Elf Man were unexpected newcomers but then there’s no accounting for the taste of the under five year olds.
How to name your Elf on the Shelf?
So the legend goes, when scout elves are adopted a family must name them. Naming your Elf is a big decision to make as when you adopt you are creating a family tradition – this is a name you’ll be using for years to come.
Let your children make suggestions and if needed have a family vote or draw his name from a hat. Once the decision is made you’ll need to write it into the back of the book with the date and you can also go to the official Elf on the Shelf website to register for an Elf Adoption Certificate. If you can’t agree on a name you might like to try an Elf Name Generator or try one of the Top Fifty Elf Names for 2015 below.
