Two names.

Ok, I work for a Brazilian family a few times a week as a nanny.

Their housekeeper's name is Eli (female). She is from Brazil and it is pronounced uh-LEE. I have no idea if it is short for anything. Anyone like it? I think it's kind of cute.


I took the kids to a play center today and I heard a mom calling her son Mirco (prn. Meer-ko). I cannot find it on any baby name sites, but I came up with a handful of people when I googled it. Does anyone know this name and where it comes from? Mirco had a brother named Nico.


And if anyone cares, the Brazilian kids I watch are named Gabriela (Gabi), Daniela (Dani), and Zachary.

I like Eli, both as a male and female name :)
