Eleanor is sweet, clever, confident, and self-assured. She is a gifted athlete, despite her larger physique. Eleanor is quite strong-willed and is far more likely than Jeanette to stand up to her sister Brittany when she feels that she is wrong.
Eleanor gets along great with Theodore of The Chipmunks. They are very open about their relationship and have many similarities. For example, they both love food (due to both being overweight) and are interested in cooking.
CGI Films
In the second film, Eleanor arrived, alongside Brittany and Jeanette, in front of the residence of former big-shot manager Ian Hawke. He agreed to manage them, as well as adopting them. Eleanor expressed the most interest in meeting the Chipmunks, especially Theodore, but was discouraged to do so by Ian with his lies. After enrolling in West Eastman, she finally got to meet him face-to-face, falling in love with Theodore. She continued to show eagerness in hanging out and getting to know him and the other Chipmunks, but her wishes were constantly being ruined by her manager. Ian was very cruel to her, making a rude comment about her weight and making her feel bad about her height. She and Jeanette were pushed further away from Brittany because Ian showed favoritism toward her. Though she was hurt by this, she held nothing against Brittany and decided to keep quiet in order to reach their dreams of becoming big.
In the live-action movies, she has a much softer and childish personality; she acts almost exactly like Theodore and seems extremely naive. In the CGI Films, Eleanor had a personality just like Theodore since she had a softish, childish, naive personality. Saying "Hi! I'm Eleanor!" in Chipwrecked just like Theodore says "Hi! I'm Theodore!"
CGI Series
Eleanor in the ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks series is much like the Eleanor of the 80s series, though itās taken to the next level. She lacks the insecurity about her weight as was portrayed in the CGI films and once again shows off her cooking abilities (Jeanette Enchanted), maternal instincts in treating the injured (What A Gem), athletic fitness (Family Spirit), and disdain for Brittany when she acts to dismiss Jeanette (My Sister the Weirdo). Despite being tomboyish she has shown several traits more commonly found in typical girls: she cries for sappy moments (Summer Camp), wears a skirt, has taken ballet lessons along with her sisters (Ballet Boys) and can be scared easily, even when she knows she was part of a scheme of scaring someone (Monster Madness). She is also seen to be a bit more hot-headed compared to her previous incarnations (Sherlock Chipmunk).
