Oh wow! These people are ruthless. I honestly love my name, I was rarely called Ni-CH-ole growing up, more often I was accidentally called “Nicholas” by new teachers and “Michelle”. For those implying that it’s ugly and the incorrect spelling— what about the name “Chloe” do you suggest that people pronounce it as CH-loe? Good grief.
For both spellings- Nichole & Nicole.. I have always loved this name and thought of it as classic beauty!

Love Nichole as a strong middle name and feminine form of Nicholas. It means “Victory” the CH spelling is Old French or Norman derived from old Germanic languages. I think it looks very nice aesthetically as well.
Nichole Bloom is an American actress and model. Bloom was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her mother is of Japanese origin and her father is Irish. She loved recreating characters and doing funny voices from a very young age. As a child, she begged her parents to help her get an agent, and then at the age of 14, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting as a career. Nichole attended Santa Susana High School in Simi Valley. Nichole went on to attend the University of Southern California as a Theater major and graduated early, after three years. She says it was a challenge for her to get cast in the university's own plays because she dedicated so much of her spare time to professional auditions outside of school.
I'm a Nichole. I used to hate the spelling but now I embrace it - it's different. I also embrace the "hole" in my name, it cracks people up when I say, "Nichole, n-i-c-H-O-L-E. There's a hole in my name!" I also get nicknamed "nitch-ole" or "chole" and I don't mind it - again, it's different and people seem to like it.
Nichole just doesn't look right. The only decent spelling is Nicole. Nichole is irritating and unpleasant looking. There's a reason for why the spelling of "Nicole" has always been WAY more common :D.

I love this spelling of Nichole and not just because it's the way my name is spelled! It has a beautiful balance when written because of the H, and seems to me to be more formal than the traditional Nicole. Not to mention that people always comment on the unusual spelling, which makes a fairly common name seem more special.
Nichole is the name of a character on South Park. She is a black girl who moves to South Park in the episode "Cartman Finds Love". Cartman tries to set her up with Token, the school's only black boy.
I've never been fond of the name Nicole, but I'd far prefer the original spelling to this version. Like other commentators, I also dislike how it has the word "hole" in it. It makes it look like the name should be pronounced "Nik-HOLE." At least it's not Nackhole, the worst kreatyv spylyng of Nicole I've ever seen.
This is my middle name, and it is spelled with the "H." The only reason it is spelled this way is because I'm named after my great grandfather Nicholas. I actually do prefer the other spelling, but I am proud to be named after my grandfather and I would never get rid of the "H". :-)
This is my middle name and it is only spelt this way because of a mistake made by a relative. I didn't even know anyone else who spelled it this way till 2 years ago. I am told it is common but I have not met very many Nicoles, let alone very many Nicholes.
I don't like this spelling. It looks sort of dumb, because really you've taken the French feminine form Nicole (of which there is not really an English equivalent, although Nichole can function that way, even though it's not a traditionally used English name like Nicholas is) and put an 'h' in it, but if it were still French it would then be pronounced differently, with a 'sh' sound.

In response to what the last person said, you are wrong. In French, "H"s are always silent, so it would be pronounced "Nick-ole".
Nope, sorry. Nichole isn't a 'real' name so you can pronounce it how you want, but in French, h is typically silent, but the combination 'ch' is pronounced like 'sh.'

Actually, YOU are wrong, I don't know about the French pronunciation of this name, but I do know that the H is not always silent in French. It has to do with words taken from Latin and words taken from Germanic languages. Because of that, some Germanic words have H's in them that are pronounced in French.
