I've run into
Mariel once. Never
Marielle.
To me they're not the same name, partly because of the different emphasis on syllables.
Mariel is MAYR-ee-əl, and
Marielle is either Mary-YELL or mar-ee-ELL.
Mariel seems like a complete name,
Marielle seems like a diminutive for
Mary.
I like
Mariel. I don't care for
Marielle - but I prefer the mar- pronunciation for it, rather than the mayr- one.
I like
Marielle Corinne and
Marielle Zoe.
Marielle Elizabeth doesn't work imo because of the -elle
El- repeat.
I kinda like the French mn thing, because I feel like it forces the mar- prn instead of mayr.
Marielle Valentine (with French -teen pronunciation)
Marielle MelisandeMarielle NoémiMarielle JohanneMarielle Yolande
