[Opinions] Arlette
I was watching a silent movie the other night and one of the girls names was Arlette. The more I think about it the more I like it.

I love this name. I like "-ette" and the "Ar" sound, unpopular as they may be. Arlette sounds delicate, lacy and feminine to me, maybe because I don't pronounce the consonants as harshly as other people might.My husband has vaguely agreed to using it on a potential daughter, even though we're probably not having kids. The only thing that worries me is the possible clashing of Fiammetta with a daughter named Arlette.

I love it. It's sweet and a tad sultry without being over the top.

I like this too, and regret that the -ette names seem to have fallen out of favour.
I like:
Annette
Lisette
Lysette
Paulette - love this, actually!

I like it a lot! It's snappy and no-nonsense. Annette and Armelle also appeal to me.
