ArchivesRe: use Noel
in reply to a message by anxiolytics
Considering all these reasons, even when ignoring that Noel is originally male, I'd go with "Noelle".
Unless you completely hate it as a middle name, you will probably get used to the spelling. (And personally I don't think it looks unbalanced :)

Thank you both for your responses. I actually like the lle spelling better, just thought the male spelling looked bettter when paired with her other names. I agree-I think I'll go with the lle ending, just b/c the incorrect usage bothers me.
The only way I can see using Noel is if one were to use it seasonally, i.e. the child was born at Christmas and you want it to refer to the season-not the proper name. Since she was not born then that is a non-issue, and I really want it to be a name she feels good about.
Thanks so much everyone!
