I believe that this phobia is currently unnamed by the scientific community. It either falls under "acrophobia" or "fear of heights" or under claustrophobia or "fear of small, enclosed spaces."

I would suggest something along the lines of sursumdeorsumphobia, which means literally, in latin, "fear of up and down" it seems to fit. Sursum is up and deorsum is down.

My first guess was to think of something along the lines of Claustrophobia, as many people who are afraid of elevators are scared of being stuck in a confined space for an extended amount of time.

Yeah, I have Clastrophobia. Once when I was in 5th grade we went to a museum, and when we went into a room with all these elevators I froze and couldn't breathe. I nearly toppled over...

Is it normal to have a phobia of riding elevators?

Well elevators stop sometimes and they have lots of problems so I think it would be a bit normal ------------- Normal is hard to say, but it is a common fear because it is a situation where a person has to give over control, even though elevators are statistically the safest form of transportation on earth - even safer than walking.
