[Opinions] Lisselle
This is a new one on me; it caught my eye because of its similarity to other names I reallly love: Lisette / Lysette, Lisanne / Lysanne, and Lissa as a nn for Larissa (Lissa / Larissa was a childhood friend).Because of the double S in the middle I'm pronouncing it lis-SELL (short I) instead of (Liselle =) lee-SELL. I don't believe this is an alternate form or spelling of Liesl, btw. It's the name of the Jamaican mother of actress Naomie Harris (Tia Dalma / Calypso in the Pirates of The Caribbean movies).So... WDYT?

I prefer Lisette, or Lisange.

Very pretty, but it sounds like li-sell or lis-ell with a short i when I say it.

I like the sound of it. I'll have to think about this one.

Hmmm, I believe that I really like it as a nickname for Elizabeth/Elisabeth. The sound is very appealing to me as I love Lis- names, too, especially Lissy. I like your pronunciation, too.I give the name two thumbs up.Do you have any ideas for middle names?

It seems to me that it is a form of Elisabeth, but is a nice name.
