How Elliot sounds
A three-syllable name, Elliot often sounds a little more formal and lends itself to a short nickname. The last sound of Elliot is a quick stop, so the name closes with a definite click. For the ear, Elliot is soft, round and flowing, which the scheme counts as a water sound. The recent trend for Elliot in U.S. birth records points upward, which suits a name that feels new but not strange. Elliot is used for girls and boys alike in U.S. birth records.
The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Elliot it is earth, made with an open throat and a soft breath. The sound of Elliot belongs to fire, the element of warmth and visibility. A chart short on fire is the one that gains most from such a name. Because fire feeds earth in the cycle of generation, Elliot can also help a chart that is short on earth, though less directly. If fire is already strong in a chart, Elliot ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
For Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, Elliot reads as a name from their own element; for Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, as a companion. Elliot is a less natural fit for fire and air signs, whose elements differ from its water sound.
