I love Delilah. The Bible story doesn't matter to me, and neither does the song. I actually like the song, and I think it's pretty.

Do you feel differently about Daniella?

Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

No, not really. Not too much of a difference there. Also I will throw in I dislike the nickname Danny or Dannie or whatever spelling for a girl.

Is the "ie" ending more feminine than a 'y' - or is it the opposite?

The most common perception is that the "ie" ending is more feminine.
