[Opinions] Ariel (m) and Arielle (f)
I'm thinking of adding both to my list. Thoughts? What first/middle names would you pair with either, if you had to?
Bonus: Because there's no denying where I got the names from, what are your favourite names that belong to Disney characters?
Thanks!

I'm in my early 20s and I grew up in a suburban city in the PNW and had 3 male classmates named Ariel - I've never met another female Ariel/Arielle. I like Ariel for both genders, personally.

Arielle was my number one girls' name for years but lately I prefer Ariana or Aurora (incidentally a Disney name but I was more grouping it here for the "Arie" nn). I do still love it and have a soft spot for it. The combo I used to use a lot was Arielle Jade which I now realise sounds like a 15 year old naming a baby. I liked Joiya's combo of Arielle Cate actually.
As for Ariel, I like it as a GP. It has a cool look to it and a Biblical reference but a boy Ariel in Australia would definitely be teased. Even a boy Ari I would worry about. If it's the same where you are, you could always go with a strong fn like Carter Ariel.

I'm not sure I'd worry about a boy Ari, but I certainly would worry about an Ariel, though I like the idea all the same.

I think both are rising in popularity. I do like Ariel on a boy, but grew up in the 80s and 90s so the mermaid pull is too strong for me to seriously consider it. I do know a couple of Ariels that are guys, but none of them are from the U.S. or had any Disney association with the name.
I think Arielle is pretty but bring the new range of pronunciations with it. I know a newborn Ariella and they pronounce is are-ee-ell-uh.
Both are beautiful names, but the Arielle spelling does disassociate with the mermaid which is probably a plus.
I would go with:
Ariel Zane for a boy to be trendy, or Ariel Heath to be cool.
For a girl - Arielle Willow is trendy but smooth and Arielle Cate would be classy, while Arielle Rose would be very Disney and Arielle Wren sweet. I think I like something more elaborate myself, like Arielle Valentine.

I love both versions and they are both on my PNL. Clearly I love Arielle as it's my DD's mn, so I like Eden Arielle as a combo, that's my fave! There are so many names that work with Ariel or Arielle as a mn though imo. It all depends on what style of name you'd prefer for the fn.
Some Disney character names that I like are Belle, Alice, Nala, Daisy, Jasmine, Minnie, Mickey and Giselle (from Enchanted). That's all I can think of right now. Not a huge Disney fan though I have to say.

I love Ariel as male name, it would be in my top 3 names for a future son if it weren’t for the detergent ruining its usability where I live. Oh, and I pronounce it the Hebrew way, since the first time I heard it it was in connection to Ariel Sharon.

Not a fan or Arielle, but it’s ok. Disney isn’t really a thing for me, so don’t know any newer names and the ones I remember from my childhood I don’t like.

I dislike Arielle and hate Ariel. Arielle seems so fluffy and vapid to me and Ariel is a boys' name. At least Arielle (ah-ree-EL) has a nice enough sound, while Ariel (AIR-ee-ul) is just kind of whiny.
I could get behind Arielle as a middle name with a classic, no-nonsense first name, like so:
Elizabeth Arielle (love this, actually)
Jane Arielle
Eve Arielle
Genevieve Arielle
Ivy Arielle
Madeline Arielle
Naomi Arielle (liking this one too)
Violet Arielle
Vivian Arielle
I'm not a huge fan of Disney princess names but I do like Jasmine, Anna (ANN-ah and not AH-na like in the movie, though), and Sofia.
