Pretty French first name for a girl.

When I was looking for a name that works in French and English, I looked at the list of the most popular names in Quebec.

I love this name, but my friend named Mireille says everyone in the US pronounces it “Morrell”. So frustrating to take such a gorgeous name and make it so hideous!

NO! Too close to Annabel and the name of a character on popular tv show.


I know a child named Amabel and it sounds lovely. No one messes up her name.

I’m American and don’t speak French yet I know how to pronounce Mireille. It’s lovely.

Because OP is American and clearly plans to live here. Read slower, PP, and you won’t embarrass yourself as often.

Plus the most popular names in France right now aren’t French names. They are Emma and Louise.

Lea. With the aigu accent. I just don't know how to write that.

I also like Joelle.

I work with an Odile. I think it's a pretty name.
