Fenella always looks like there's a bad smell in the air.
Never been a fan, it reminds me of fennel.
Sounds like an herb or spice that I should have in my spice rack, but don't
I know someone with this name, she’s really nice and I remember loving her name when I was younger, I still like it but not as much.
I can easily imagine it as the name of the (deceased/unmentioned) mother of several Disney princesses...whatever that says about it.
It reminds me of vanilla, fens, and fairy tales. It's not a name I'd pick, but it's alright.

Honestly it sounds like a type of pasta. Like the siblings would be Linguine, Farfalle and Rotini.
I love Nell, but this is stuffy.
I like it on other people. It's easier to deal with than Fionnuala, but ... perhaps it seems to be trying too hard to be upper-class, if that even makes sense.
I think it is ok
