Re: Rachel or Rachael?
I happen to think April and Kendra are pretty. :(Rachel is one of my favorite names, but I hate the Rachael spelling. The extra 'a' just reminds me of how British words always have extra vowels that don't need to be there since they have no function (e.g., Caesium, Oestrogen). I am vehemently against those extra letters; I think they look ugly.

Do you have the same reaction to Michael? Or are you sufficiently used to it? Of course, Michel looks as if it should sound French.
