Help[Opinions] Re: Michaela
in reply to a message by Llewella
Michaela, Makayla, Mikayla, Mckayla, they're all the same name to me because they're pronounced exactly the same. But that being said, I don't really like the Michaela spelling. It definitely is the original real deal, but the way it's put together looks like just "Dad's name is Michael, this one turned out to be a girl, so let's just stick an a on the end of Michael..." Just too obvious.

I don't like either of those names, but upon reflection they seem more I don't know, logical? as feminine versions of Paul and Robert. Same way that Michelle seems more "logical" as a femininization of Michael, even though it's more elaborated and Frenchified.
Still reflecting, if you really want to delve into it, Charlesetta would be the more literal feminization (damn, that is not an easy word to type) of Charles, but it's so obvious it grosses me out. Charlene and Charlotte are more elaborated, but seem more "logical" to me. Carla too, though again if you want to nitpick it's more directly a feminization of Carl. *shrug* I guess this is a case where it's better not to overthink it.
