Re: Ariel
in reply to a message by Ophelia
As a mother to a little girl, let me say that this name is firmly in Disney Princess territory. Historical usage aside, this one is all girl, in North American society anyways. I asked my 6 year old what she thought of Ariel for a boys name and she looked at me like I was straight up crazy..."Ariel is a PRINCESS, Mommy". So yeah, I'm not sure any little boy would appreciate having to contend with that growing up. There are better ways to build character ;)
