When you welcome your Elf on the Shelf for the first time, one of the first (and sometimes hardest) things you need to do is name your elf.
I don’t know about you, but I felt like naming my babies (which I thought would be SO fun) was one of the hardest parts of having a baby.
Then we got an Elf on the Shelf – and choosing a name was the seemingly impossible task all over again. 🤦♀️
I have no idea how we did it, but somehow we came up with the name Beezy – and so he’s been called for many years now! And it’s one of our favorite family holiday traditions!

Coming Up With The Perfect Elf on the Shelf Name For A Boy Elf
Are you brainstorming names for your elf? I’ve got you covered! I was hoping to come up with 100 common – and not-so-common – names. But in the end, I came up with many more than that.
I guess I got a little carried away, but without the pressure of having to name OUR elf, I felt inspired instead! 🤷♀️
What are some good Elf on the Shelf names? Well, keep reading, and I’m sure you’ll find the perfect name!
How To Name Your Elf On The Shelf
No matter what, let your kids name their elf. They may need some suggestions or ideas (from this list!), but let them make the final choice.
Be prepared for the process to take a while because naming your elf is a personal thing to do.
What if they can’t decide on one name together? Well, then you have to get creative. We used a “pick the name out of a hat” setup once we reached an impasse.
Just have the kids write down their preferred name on a piece of paper and pull the winning choice out of a hat. 😁
