Re: One-syllable _ale-sounding names...
in reply to a message by Joiya
Mael and Yael are pronounced mah-el and yah-el: not sure about Lael, but I imagine it's similar.
Cale is kind of nice, but a bit too vegetable-y
Fale would be an uncomfortable name to have!
Dale and Gail are fine, not names I'd choose myself, but perfectly usable.
Do you like Abigail? Most people on here seem to really dislike it, but I think it's okay.

I actually really like Abigail; I didn't realize it was generally disliked - it's lovely!

Same here... Abigail is one of my favorite names!

Fale is pronounced like FAH-leh. Almost like "fallen" without the N.

Not a huge fan of Abigail, but I don't dislike it. I just prefer other names. In fact, I probably like it best BECAUSE of the 'gail' inclusion. Fale looks cool, but I never realized the fail connection when I read it today. Good call.
(I know a Kale... I always thought it a bit too earthy, but his full name is Kalen)
