Help[Opinions] Re: Gavriella
in reply to a message by BookEm'Danno
Gavriella looks prettier than Gabriella, but it's the same name to me, kinda like Avigail/Abigail and Devorah/Deborah. I'd pick the V version just aesthetically, if I'd never seen the names before. But I'm really accustomed to Gabriella, I've never met one who wasn't smart and nice, and I think Gabi is cute. When I see Gavriella I just think "That's a Gabriella trying to avoid Gabi, or else Jewish/Israeli." It's fine, but I don't like it more than Gabriella.
Shawn and Shaun - There were guys named this name with each of the spellings, in my level at elementary school. So they seem very familiar to me. Maybe because of those boys, I think of Shawn as a more "rebellious" type spelling, better-looking, more fun. Shaun seems better behaved and more successful and reliable. I think Shaun is a little ugly visually (and reminds me of Shaun the Sheep a little), and I like Sean more than it. I think Shawn seems "pretty," as someone else noted. So I favor Shawn (and also Shawna). I like Shane a little more than Shawn.
