I'm not sure I'd change mine, I like it quite a lot, but I sometimes think that I don't look or act much like an Ellis, whatever an Ellis should look or act like. I am in my girlfriend's phone under the name 'William', which suits me much more I think. Bit late now though, and it would mean being called 'Bill' when I get old.
Sticking with the middle names theme though, I wouldn't mind adopting mine - it's Nathaniel.
what would you change your name to?

I don't have a middle name, just one first name here.

apparently there is research into how 'attractive' a name is.
the results of that research says the difference is between vowels: front vowels vs. back vowels. at least in the US, front vowels in names tend to be rated as more sexy.
regardless, i'm not majority and will never be. thus, i don't mind having back vowel names.
i agree with Ruby: Ryan is a sexy name, as is Nathaniel. (coincidentally, the middle names of my two fav nephews!)
i'll add: Ellis is a far out name. some front vowel action there

The name I have been called my whole life (Caity/ Caity Mae) fits me like a glove. Problem being that that isn't my real name-- my real name is 9 letters of sheer proper, elegant sounding awfulness that (pretty as it is) doesn't fit me at all. Thus, I want to legally make my name Caity because I never met the woman I was actually named after anyway, so I am not worried about offending her.

"P.S. Bring Me Home And Have Me!"
Leather elbows on a tweed coat
-Oh!-
Is THAT the best you can do ?
So came his reply :
"But on the desk is where I want you!"
