Wow, a female
Gabriel. Before the 1950s they weren't unheard of here (much like female Noels) but they must be really, really rare now. I have no idea if it's pronounced differently on girls; if not, I think it might be quite an uncomfortable name to have.
Interesting to see
Gretel, and
Wilbur!
Also: my favourite great-uncle
George died earlier this year. I said tearfully at the time that I thought all babies should now be named
George after him. Um, looks like I got my wish? @@
