HelpRe: Juli or July?
in reply to a message by Silvie
I like that film a lot! :-)
But you can be sure, that in German, Juli is only a nickname for Julia (YOO-lee-a). (Same holds for writer Juli Zeh - she's also a Julia originally.)
In English, I think I'd prefer Julie over July.

Yes, coincidentally so :-)
I meant to say, in Germany (where I live) Juli is a nickname for Julia - you can't name a person after a month here.
In the U.S. of course, it's no problem to name a child after the German word for a month :-)
