200+Elf On The Shelf Names- With Elf Name Printable!

So you got a new Elf on the Shelf, huh? Now you definitely need an Elf on the Shelf name, an elf name printable to go with it and these awesome Elf on the Shelf ideas.

It’s an exciting time! And naming an Elf can be tons of fun. There are so many options! And while it is nice for the kids to name the Elf, if you give your child total free reign to name the Elf on the Shelf whatever they please, you might be stuck with sometime preposterous. Our Elf is named Star Pony. Yeah.

Why not make naming your Elf on the Shelf a game? Check out my Elf on the Shelf Planning Calendar, which contains a printable Elf on the Shelf name bracket game. Get the whole family together for the event!

Unfortunately, I gave my daughter the freedom to, without direction, name our Elf. If I had had an incredible list like this one, I could have given suggestions for her to choose from. Because kids aren’t the best at naming things.

This list has it all. The very BEST Elf on the Shelf names for you little holiday visitor. There are traditional elf name ideas, unique elf on the shelf names, boy elf names, girl elf names, Christmas-y names, Elf-y names, funny elf names, mischievous elf names, and completely silly and ridiculous names. (Some names can be used for both boy and girl elves, so make sure to read both lists!)

Here’s to finding the perfect names for the Elf on the Shelf.

Over 200 Elf on the Shelf names for your Christmas elf.

P.S. If your elf hasn’t arrived yet, check out this free printable Elf on the Shelf Introduction Letter.
