ArchivesRe: I would like to find the meaning of
in reply to a message by Genela
Are you perhaps of German descent?
If so, try this: Eugen is the German male version of Eugene. A fem version of that, in French, would be Eugenie like the empress. And if that was used in German (and I bet it could be), then Genele would be a fem diminutive and would be pronounced like your name, with the final e making a separate syllable. But to make things easier for non-German speakers, it could just as easily be changed to an a - Genela!
Of course, this does assume that you pronounce it with the G of Gareth, not the G of George ...
