Comments for the name Ariadne

Beautiful name with awesome mythological connotations.

I think this is a very lovely name. It's also one of my friend's name and everyone says how classy and admirable it sounds.

I've always associated this name with the name of Adrianna or Adriana. There has only been one Ariadne I've known in my life and was pronounced AREE-AD-NUH or AREE-ANNE (with a silent 'd'). Ariadne is quite a unique name blessed with beauty, grace and purity.

This is one of my most favorite names. It is such an elegant name with a lovely meaning.

I think that this name is the most beautiful thing that you can ever name your beloved daughter! Why use platitudinous names like Isabella, Kayla, Emily and Emma, when there is this? So delicate, pure and indubitable! My second daughter is going to be named this and I certainly repute that she will live up to her name.

I think I would like this name if it didn't remind me so much of 'Rodney'. I also sort of fancy the pronuncation "air-eee-AY-den", but that's just me.

It wouldn't remind you of Rodney if you said it correctly. Rodney is "ROD-nee" not "RADNEE" and Ariadne is said like the site says. I love this name, it is amazingly beautiful.

I think this is a beautiful name! (Let's all hope it doesn't become to common)

I LOVE this name, it's so beautiful! I personally like the pronunciation 'are-ee-add-nuh', but that's just me.

This name is so beautiful and not too popular so that's just great. Anyone who wants their child to be named Arianna/Ariana (etc.) should consider this instead. I like the pronunciations, "are-ee-A-den" or "are-ODD-nee/are-ee-ODD-nee.

I much prefer Ariana. The "d" to me disrupts the visual image of the name as well as creates an uncertainty as to the pronunciation. Ariana is pretty hard to mispronounce, although it can be done just like with any other name. Ariadne is just trying too hard!

I think this is a really nice name. I pronounce it AH-ree-AHD-nee. The meaning is great and it's so unique!

This name is beautiful as it is, period. If not for the possibly sacrilegious meaning, I wouldn't mind naming my daughter this, honestly.

It's different. It's unique. It's beautiful.

It's a good name for an 80 year old woman. How would you pronounce it, like AH REE AAADNEE! Ugly.

This name is beautiful, but difficult to spell/pronounce. Adrianna would be a nice substitute.

I love this name, I think it's so elegant but also with a young element - and there can be a lot of nicknames like Addy, Aria and my personal favourite Ria - this name is definitely one of my all-time favourites!
