This was the name of my best childhood friend. I've never liked it much. I don't care much at all for feminized versions of male names, particularly those which are feminized simply by adding an A. They don't seem feminine *enough* to me. Paul is a short, blunt, masculine name, and adding an A just isn't enough to make it a girl's name! One big exception is Victoria, which, because of the added I and the change in emphasis on the syllables from Victor, seems very feminine.
