[Opinions] Re: Mazal
in reply to a message by Murasaki
I also have a HUGE soft spot for Hebrew names... I'm a walking soft spot for Hebrew names... but this doesn't really work for me. To me, it's like naming your child Luck. I can't hear it without "tov" after it... and Mazal Tova would be too funny for words. That being said, Tova is lovely.
I don't like the way it's pronounced, and no one will ever get it right the first time, FYI. They're going to say MAY-zel or mah-ZAHL or something like that. It's a good sentiment, but I would say no to this.
