[Opinions] Re: Raphael vs Rafael
The Poll users and the Message board users are almost two different sets of people (see my usage poll here: http://www.behindthename.com/polls/view.php?id=26622 for proof) so you may get a different answer over here :-)Anyway . . .I prefer Raphael. My reason is that as an English speaker, the 'ph' looks far more formal, literate and 'right' than the 'f'. I suspect that most other English-speakers would feel the same, even if they aren't conscious of it.:-)
