Odile
While working, I came across this name: Odile. It's the name of an elderly french woman and it seems that it isn't used this much in our generation...I never knew someone with this name.
But I kinda like it, although it doesnt sound very feminine..
So, what do you guys think of it?

There is this ballet ... Swan Lake ... you may have heard of it? Very taxing - there's a double character, Odette for the good girl, Odile for the bad girl. I knew a Dutch woman, now dead, who was an Odile. She was a schoolgirl in Amsterdam during WWII. Apart from her, I knew a South African Odile who must have been born in about 1960; never seen it again.It seems pleasant enough to me, attractive even, though I wouldn't use it - there are so many nicer names. And I don't find it unfeminine at all.

I like it. I think I prefer something more elaborate, however, like Odilia.

I adore Odile! It's so sleek and supple.

I like it. It is simple and sweet, and the spelling is phenom. I think it very usable IRL and love that it skips over the usuall frills of girly names.
EDIT: just fell in love with it. Put in on my short list for DH (which today includes Trina Mayumi, Rhian Dalisay and, now, Odile Haline). Thanks.

So that would be oh-DEAL, then right? That's really simple yet pretty. I like it.
