[Opinions] Re: Ariel, Arielle or Ariella?
in reply to a message by Lily
What do you think of Ariel, Arielle and Ariella? Which one is your favorite and which one your least favorite?
- I like all three versions of the name. My favorite would probably be Ariella.
Do you pronounce Ariel and Arielle differently? Is it too tied to the little mermaid?
- Yes I do pronounce them differently. Ariel I say as "air-ree-UL", whereas I say Arielle as "ARI-elle". I think it's still usable, even though it is quite linked to The Little Mermaid.
Do you know anyone with those names? Ariel seems to have been quite common in the early 90s when the movie came out but has declined in popularity ever since.
- Never met a girl with the name, no.Do you like Ariela? The nickname Ari?
- Ariela looks unfinished to me. Ari could be a nn for it, but I wouldn't use it as I like Ari as a full name and only for a boy.
