HelpRe: Question about names and cultures
in reply to a message by RegalAmethyst
Yes, I was trying to make a point with Rachel & Leah. I had a roommate Rachel, her siblings were Sarah, Peter, and John. Being a name nerd I suspected that they referred to Biblical names and I was completely right. Rachel has a Mennonite background.
From the list that you gave I feel that Avigal would be seen as a creative spelling of Abigail my most. My name is Agata and I've been asked before if my parents misspelled my name (I prounounce Agata like Agatha without the H - so Agate-uh).

Most people probably would assume that, except anyone who was actually Jewish and familiar with Jewish names. But then I'm assuming. In the end I suppose it really depends on the individual person's opinion, whether they'd be offended or honored. Who can count on either one?
Agata is a gorgeous name, by the way.
