[Facts] Arielle
Is Arielle a French feminine form of Ariel, or a modern English coinage?I assumed it was French, as it follows an obvious pattern (Gabriel > Gabrielle; Daniel --> Danielle) but I've not yet come across a French speaker using it._____________________________________________________________________"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true."Elinor

Hi :) I'm french (living in Corsica) and Arielle is used here. There's the famous actress/singer Arielle Dombasle, and I know two Arielle in real life. It may be both english and french, but I've always assumed it was french.Bye,
Andria.
