Comments for the name Noël

Comments for NOËL:

I believe this spelling is used for both male and female children; the pronunciation [nol] is typically used for males and the [no-EL] pronunciation for girls. Without the two dots over the E the name would be pronounced [nol].

Other variants of spelling (for female usage, typically) include Noelle, Noell, Noele, etc. (The first is most common, I believe.)

I think it is said NOLL, like Joel, but some people can say it like No-elle. It works either way... as long as you correct them if you're a guy.

Noel is exclusively a male's name. The females can be Noelle or Noelia.

Merry Christmas! (Christmas Eve)! It's an okay name, but only for kids born on or around Christmas. Otherwise, it's kindof tacky.
