[Opinions] Re: Ariel
in reply to a message by Lily8
What do you think of Ariel? Do you prefer it for a boy or a girl?
-I like the name and prefer it on a girl.
How do you pronounce Ariel? Different from Arielle?
-Somewhat! I say Ariel quickly and with Arielle I emphasize the elle. ARI-el and ari-ELLE.
Arielle or Ariel for a girl?
-Both!
I actually like Ariel pr. ah-ree-ELL best for a girl but wonder if there would be many pronunciation problems. I also like Ariel pr. AH-ree-el or AIR-ee-el. Which pronunciation do you prefer and which one is best for Ariel?
-I prefer AIR-ee-el and that is the one I think is best.
I also like Arielle but wonder if it's a bit frilly plus it doesn't go well with Noah Olivia, my favorite for a girl.
-I think it goes fine with Noah Olivia. I think Ariel is less frilly and Arielle is more frilly. I like frilly names lol. However, the Ariel spelling is not as frilly. So I think Ariel and Noah would look nice together in a sibset. Arielle and Noah not so much. So I would go with the Ariel spelling personally in this situation.
Noah and Ariel for sisters? Noah Olivia and Ariel ???
-Yes
Do you think it's still too common? How many with the name do you know?
-I don't think it is too common. I don't know anyone by that name.
-I like the name and prefer it on a girl.
