HelpRe: Nell(e) and Parnell
in reply to a message by Array
"Come Out Ye Black and Tans" makes some reference to an Irish Parnell. I know a shamefully small amout of Irish history so I can't tell you what he did, but that's what it reminds me of straight away.
I know a few Parnells (as in, people with that surname). So it's pretty surnamey to me, though not unattractive. Petronel and Petronella appeal to me more but I know you're not into that. :-)
If you're up for suggestions, as 'full' names for Nell I like to some degree:
Cornelia, Cornelie, or Kornelia
Antonella
Fenella
Ionela
Marinella
Marianela
Nigella (a glaring guilty pleasure of mine)
Helena or Helene
Hm. That's about it. I'm not feeling it'll be a very fruitful list for you, though. I like Nell a lot on its own anyway. I feel the same way that you decribed about Mame.
