[Opinions] Cyndal
I saw this name, and at first I thought it was pronounced sin-doll, but looking at it I started to think maybe it's a kre8tiv spelling of Kendall. Which do you guys think it is?~*~Shana~*~

I would have said SIN-doll as well. If someone did intend it to be Kendal, they need a lesson in basic English phonetics! SIN-doll is actually quite nice ... I hope it's a separate name.Incidentally, I do rather like Kendal for a girl._____________________________________________________________________Elinor

It is! It's from the Ewok Adventure that was a spin-off from the Star Wars movies! My boyfriend's favorite movie as a kid, I've seen it recently when we were looking up our old faves. The little girl was adorable (not so much, the name).
At least, I hope that's where they got it from, or they just made it up and that is terrible, because it's not a pretty sounding name to me.

If you wouldn't have told me it was Kendall I never would have guessed it :/

I don't think it's a creative spelling of Kendall. I've heard of the name Cyndell on another forum from a woman who does like creative names, so I think they might just be related.

I'm thinking about the pain in my eyes right now...(m)I really hope it isn't said like Kendall, since that violates every rule of phonetics ever invented (okay, not really, but still).Maybe someone couldn't decide between Cindy and Kendall?

I think it's actually a name from that made for TV Ewok movie from the eighties. Either that or its Cindy plus Elle.

I'd say sin-dal at first glance... Makes me think of cymbals.
