Help[Opinions] Re: Adele
in reply to a message by Starving Artist
While I prefer Adelina or Adela, I think Adele is nice. There's nothing wrong with it. I've never known one. A friend of mine growing up had it as her mn (Elizabeth Adele). Funny, her parents never could remember if they spelled it Adele or Adelle! I'm glad they spelled it the "proper" way, Adele. ;-)
Another observation, while on another name forum several years ago, Adele came up a time or two. One of the regulars mentioned several times that it was ripe for teasing with -- a farmer in Adele (rather than a farmer in the dell). I remember thinking, seriously? Who is going to come up with that one? I just wanted you to know that possibility is always there. I guess it's true that any name can be be made fun of if given enough thought.
Re: personality, I can't come up with one. Adele is a blank slate. She could be anyone. Re: mn, I'd pair it with a three or four-syllable mn since the surname also has two syllables.
