Thanks for all the responses. Despite most people saying they don't like it as a girls name - for some reason I think this has made up my mind how much I really do like it for a girl! I find it a bit effeminate for a boy.
I have seen the TV show Scrubs and whilst watching it, I have never, ever thought "Elliott is a boys name" - it has only ever occurred to me now I am pregnant and looking at baby names myself.

I do think of Elliot as more of a boys name but I have to say that I have just fallen in love with 'Elliot Grace' for a girl! It is cute and sassy and suitable for an child or adult. Ellie makes a great nickname or alternative name if she decides she doesn't like it.
I think it is one of those borderline names - technically a boy's name but feminine enough to pass as a girls name. There are lots of names that have passed from the male to female lists because someone was brave enough to use it (Cameron, Ashley, Jody, Shannon, Sacha, Tyler to name a few.)

Well, I see Elliott as a boy's name but if you want to use it for a girl... go ahead!
My cousin named her baby Erin Grace. She's the cutest thing!
If people name their kids Apple, Pilot and Jermajesty, naming a girl Elliot wouldn't be any weird!

Well, I think it is typically a boy name, but I think it could work for a girl. Elliot on the tv show Scrubs is a girl!! Elliot Grace has a nice ring to it. I say go for it!

I definitely see Elliott as a boys name. Grace is beautiful though. How about Ella Grace?

I like Grace but not Elliott for a girl. Elliott is good for a boy.

Elliott is a boys name. Do you know how hard things are when you are a girl with a boys name? Try going to the hospital. It's not fun. Trust me. Name her Eliana, or Elena.
