Help[Opinions] Re: Gavriella
in reply to a message by BookEm'Danno
I'd prefer Gavriella but only slightly. I feel like it's easier to say - or it feels subtly less clumsy/awkward when I say it somehow? It's not like Gavriel vs Gabriel (I'd pick Gabriel) which sound more obviously different to me; I'd say the vowel in the feminine versions the exact same way, but not in the two masculine versions, so it's almost as insignificant seeming a distinction as Gabriela vs Gabriella (I prefer Gabriela).
I think they're both nice names although wouldn't realistically consider using either of them.
Shawn and Shaun look equally uglier than Sean to me, so really I'm indifferent, but Shawn looks more obviously phonetic, and I've seen that a lot more than Shaun, so I'll go with that. But I think I'd use Shauna before Shawna; it looks streamlined (also familiar, because of Fauna) and more like its own name to me rather than Shawn + A.
