That is my name and I love it. It is a pretty name and at the same time simple. I like how it is not popular but known enough to think of it as a strange name.

Chantal is a very pretty name for a girl. I also like the spelling Chantelle.

There is a singer named Chantal Chamandy, who is a Canadian of Greek and Lebanese decent and who was born in Alexandria, Egypt. I like this name a lot; it's very elegant.

A famous bearer is actress Chantal Poullain, she was born 17th August 1956, Marseille, France.

Before our daughter was born. I bought books and researched the internet for unique names. I came across "Chantal" in the strangest ways. I was in contact with a very old gun manufacturer, Herstal, in Belgium, researching information about an antique hunting rifle, and the lady who replied to my e-mails was called Chantal. I wrote to her and told her that I loved her name and when she found out that we named our daughter Chantal -- she was very flattered.

I was looking for a name that had an elegant sound "Ch" sound, that was unique and that was not being used by everyone. So we named our daughter "Chantal". Later on I discovered that there was a saint name Chantal -- St. Jeanne de Chantal. But that's not all.

On August 6, 2005, we baptized our daughter and while the ceremony was being held at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, in Anza, California, a tropical storm was brewing. Right after the ceremony we celebrated at home with family and friends. The tropical storm followed us home to Aguanga. We had 40-mph winds, lightening, thunder and showers like we had never seen before. Thus, we believe it was a message from God telling us that we better take care of Chantal.

I never knew till two weekends ago that Chantal has a history of hurricanes and storms. On July 31, 2007, a tropical storm in the Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda and Massacusetts, threatened the U. S. This tropical storm was Chantal.

Our daughter's name is fit for her temperament and the whirlwind that we went through to give birth to her and the tropical storm on her baptism day. We love Chantal and everything that comes with the name! Virginia and Guy

Not exactly famous, but Chantal was the name of the runner-up in cycle nine of the TV show America's Next Top Model. That's where I first heard this name, and I think it's quite pretty.

This name makes me think of a porn star or a stripper.

I have always liked the name Chantel more. I think there is more grace, elegance, and beauty to it.

Wow. That's a lot of different pronunciations.

What a gorgeous name!

I like the name a lot. Chantal is a tomboy name that isn't unisex and it is a creative name.
