That not a silly question at all, I think its a good one.
Is it "Ella" or "Elly"?
I'm a CW guy so I don't get to "hear" it on the air...but it seems that
most
of the times I've heard in eyeball qso's its been "Elly".
I have heard the origin of the name is indeed from "Elegant" and "Craft"
as
Mike points out.

When I tell old timers who don't read the ham comics or the various web

The question is not silly at all.
And the answer is presented by Eric & Wayne on elecraft.com, page 'Home':
/How do you say Elecraft?/ *Ele *(as in "Elegant") *+ Craft.
