I searched in the English dictionary the words that complete the alphametics
eleven + eleven = ?
in such a way that the solution is unique.
BTW - unique was one of the words that would fit!
There was a long list of potential candidates, so I decided to limit my choices by using only the letters that are not a part of the word eleven, e.g. circuit.
I leave it to you to find a non-esoteric word without any of the ELVN letters.
Enjoy!

UNIQUE shares both N and E with ELEVEN, and thus disqualified it.
It does indeed have a unique solution:
ELEVEN = 414542 ; UNIQUE = 829084
clearvars,clc
digs='0123456789';
lets='elvnuiq';
idx=combinator(10,7,'p');
digsets=digs(idx);
for i=1:length(digsets)
digset=digsets(i,:);
if digset(1)~='0' && digset(5)~='0'
w1='eleven'; w2='unique';
for j=1:length(lets)
w1=strrep(w1,lets(j),digset(j));
w2=strrep(w2,lets(j),digset(j));
end
n1=str2double(w1);
n2=str2double(w2);
if 2*n1==n2
disp([n1 n2])
end
end
end
