I don't think
Noelle should be confined to
Christmas babies.
Holly and
Carol are also words associated with
Christmas and you wouldn't be surprised to meet a
Carol who was born in the summer.
Noella is very pretty. Noellen and Noellena are a bit much for me. I like
Noelani and
Noemie.
I think
Noel looks masculine and I would pronounce it differently to
Noelle. Besides, if
Noelle is too Christmassy then
Noel is even more so.
