Re: Morelle (Morel)
in reply to a message by Ismene
Well,
I like Mirelle - so I see no reason why Morelle wouldn't work.
I do think it is more of a name spelled that way than Morel. Though, I suppose you could argue for Morel on a boy. I am not sure I like the sound on a boy though.
The problem I find with this (potential) name is that the 'o' removes all of the frill and beauty of -elle names, and especially from the Marielle, Murielle, Mireille category.
I would just rather someone go with Sorrel which at least sounds prettier.
Basically - I wouldn't bat an eye if I met one, but I would never suggest it to someone or use it myself.
