HelpMichelle (opinions please)
My husband and I were watching an old John Wayne movie and heard the name Michelle (Pro mee-SHEL) I've watched this movie many times but this time it struck us both. but I'm afraid people will think "full house" when they hear it and pronounced it mi-SHEL.
I was wondering what your opinions are and what sort of middle name you would chose?

if you heard it pronounced like mee-SHEL it's probably the french way. plus, i think it's a guys name.

"Full House" is not the only place where it's pronounced mi-SHEL. I live in the U.S., and that's the only way I've heard it pronounced here. That being said, I dislike it. It's very 1980s to me.

I've known lots of people with this name, and always it is pronounced Mi-shell. Mee-shell sounds a bit pretenious in English, even if it's the french pronounciation.

I like the idea of spelling it MeChelle/Me'Chelle but you don't think it looks to "made up"

That is possibly the worst spelling I've ever seen in my life, sorry.

Michelle pron mee-shel is the normal pron. to me (I'm French). I quite like Michelle although it sounds boyish (like Michel) to me...

Mee-shell is a beautiful pronunciation. Although I would probably spell it Mechelle.

I like the name Michelle, and that pronunciation. I think that if you want to have it pronouned mee-SHEL, you should spell it Me'Chelle. I cant think of a middle name to go with it though.
