Cant stand Gabrielle.
Gabriella is pretty.
Gabriela is harder, a bit more masculine.
Didn't actually know Manuela was a name.
Never been a fan of Noelle.
Priscilla is ok, but I prefer Cecelia.

Definitely Gabriella, but Gabriela isn't bad. I think both are MUCH prettier than Gabrielle.

I really like the name Gabrielle! I think it has such a pretty, classy sound to it.

---

Gabriella / Gabriela is nice, too. If I had to choose one spelling, I'd probably go with Gabriella, but the one "L" doesn't bother me. For me, it really depends on the name, whether or not I prefer the one "L" or the two. For instance, I love the name Daniela, and while Daniella is also pretty, I think the one "L" is nicer. Isabella, though, I prefer the two.

---

Manuela, Noelle, and Priscilla are all dnmsaa. Noelia, though, is a name I really like (similar to Noelle).

I'm not fond of any of them--I think it's the "gab" part that bothers me. But if forced to pick, I'd go with Gabriella nn Ella. :b

---

I haven't noticed names with one L becoming a fad at all. Often, it's names with one L given an extra. Daniela to Daniella, Gabriela to Gabriella, etc.

---

I really dislike Noelle. It's just so Christmas-y to me, but I'm not fond of "seasonal" names, if that makes sense. And the -elle ending isn't my favorite. Manuela isn't very attractive to my eyes. I do like Priscilla, but not the possibility of her being called "Prissy".

I like Gabriela, but it also looks nice with 2 "L". I like Camila, Camilla loves to old lady like. I like Manuela, noelle and Prscilla.

I prefer Gabrielle. Gabriella / Gabriela is ok, but I like Gabrielle much better. I haven't noticed that one L spellings are becoming a fad. In Spanish speaking cultures, it's commonplace for names, such as Daniela and Gabriela, to be spelled with one L.

---

I personally don't find Priscilla and Manuela appealing, but I like Noelle.

Gabriela definitely!

My favorite is Gabrielle, which I adore. I also love Gabriella / Gabriela. I do think most people would automatically assume Gabriella, but it's not that hard to say "Gabriella, with one L". Where did you hear about the fad? I've never heard of any such thing.

---

I hate Manuela and Priscilla, sorry, but I adore Noelle.

My preference is Gabriela... it's a long name, and another 'l' kind of isn't needed for balance.

---

Manuela would be nice to be heard more often, except she might be called 'Man' this or that... Mannie might be a cute middle name. I think I saw it on a show my sister watches.

---

Noelle... it's okay. I only like it really when it has a meaning tied to it (born on Christmas).

---

Priscilla, makes me think of 'pris' or 'prissy' ... unfortunately Cilla is one of the prettiest nicknames ever.

I like both Gabrielle and Gabriella (for me, it'd depend upon the middle name choice(s)). I do think Gabriela would be misspelled often.

I like Gabriella and Noelle

I prefer Gabriela, and I like Daniela, too. I can't say whether or not they're becoming a bit of a fad, but I know I prefer the one "L" as well. I've been loving Spanish names lately, and the one "L" is typical of a lot of Spanish names (i.e. Manuela, Carmela, Camila).

---

As for your other question, Manuela is so classy and pretty. Noelle and Priscilla are a bit frilly (for lack of a better word) for me, but they're not bad names.

I like Gabriella :)
