HelpRe: Muriel
in reply to a message by vigdis
Miriam is absolutely beautiful in both look and sound, and nothing like Muriel as far as I can tell.
I do know two people called Muriel.
One is a Jewish lady in her 80s whose Hebrew name, I presume, is Miriam or something else beginning with M.
The other is a woman in her early 60s whose elder sister is called Dorothy: both names were rather old-fashioned when they were named, particularly Muriel, and both names are equally dowdy in my eyes.
Muriel would be OK for a kitten ("mew") and cat, but on a girl I prefer Mariel or - better still - gorgeous Mireille.
