Your first name of Ellington has given you a friendly, likeable nature, and you could excel in artistic, dramatic, and musical expression. With this name, you desire the finer things in life, but you do not always have the resolve and vitality to put forth the effort necessary to fulfil your desires. You appreciate fashionable clothes and refined surroundings because they add to your poise and self-assurance. If those around you are quarrelling, you would want to try to be the mediator to create understanding between them. Yours is a quick mind and you can usually think of something to say when there is a need to offset or deflect an unpleasant situation, sometimes finding it necessary to stretch the truth a little in the process. Though you always have the best of intentions and dislike facing issues, procrastination could be your worst enemy. As you often experience difficulty making decisions, you appreciate the encouragement of others to give you the support and confidence necessary to follow through on your decisions. As a result, some of your efforts are scattered and unsuccessful. You have high goals and ideals, but must incorporate more practicality, system, and concentration in order to materialize them. After each experience, you have to guard against feelings of despondency and self-pity.
