ArchivesRe: MN spelling issue-Noel
in reply to a message by anxiolytics
I know a woman, born in the early 1940s in South Africa, whose name is Noel. It's never given her a moment's trouble.
Personally, I don't see the point of using a French spelling (Jeanne, Isabelle, Noelle etc) unless either you are French or you plan to use the French pronunciation. But I don't suppose there's much French spoken in the US, so that might not be an issue.
