Re: Noel
in reply to a message by Ninor
I like it very much: same pronunciation as yours, and also male-only, where I live. Girls get Noelle, pronounced noWELL, which I find unattractive and unFrench!
I wouldn't use it; I have no Christmassy associations with it, but others do, and since I'm not religious I choose to avoid it. But I far prefer Noel to Neil, for instance.
