[Opinions] Re: Juli or July?
I like that film a lot! :-)But you can be sure, that in German, Juli is only a nickname for Julia (YOO-lee-a). (Same holds for writer Juli Zeh - she's also a Julia originally.)
In English, I think I'd prefer Julie over July.*****

Read the comments for Juli: it's also the name for the month of July. ny

Yes, coincidentally so :-)I meant to say, in Germany (where I live) Juli is a nickname for Julia - you can't name a person after a month here.In the U.S. of course, it's no problem to name a child after the German word for a month :-)*****
