You know what else gets you to Dan or Danny? Daniel.

It is way, way, way, WAY too feminine. It is the girl's version of the man's name. Carol was at least originally masculine. Danielle was ALWAYS a girl's name and was created so that people could use a version of Daniel on a girl.

Daniel is wonderful. Danielle, not so much.

Ditto. m

Although I suppose you could always pronounce Daniel the French way, but he'd always have to correct people.

I'm interested about your son being named Carol... do you call him Carol or does he go by Cary? Or his middle name?
