[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Biblical names may be popular in Hispanic communities, but Asher will be mispronounced, since it is not a Spanish name. Samuel exists in both languages, so if that's your criteria, that's what you should choose.[/quote] "Samuel" makes up part of my last name, and when I lived in South Florida, Spanish speakers often said "Sam-WELL." It didn't bother me, but I don't know if this matters to you. [/quote] "Sam-WELL" is how the name Samuel is pronounced in Spanish--it is a bilingual name! I'm guessing OP probably knows this.[/quote] Probably. I'm not Hispanic, so that pronunciation, to me, was "wrong." Absolutely not a big deal, though -- as long as the OP isn't expecting people to say "SAM-yool" then it's all good. [/quote]
