Mariella?

[PooDogMillionaire]

In keeping with the 'ella' theme, how about Mariella?

[MrsMichelRouxJr]

Sorry OP it sounds like a brand of contraceptive pill. I'm not keen.

How about just 'Ella' which I think is lovely?

[fastdaytears]

I love it

[MrsMichelRouxJr]

Or Gabriella?

[Kirkenes]

I think it's lovely. It a normal name but not ridiculously popular like Ella

[moreshitandnofuckingredemption]

Love it

[WhyCantIuseTheNameIWant]

Mariella fostrup? Frostrup?

Quite cutesy... But sweet.

[Pipestheghost]

I like it.

[Ouch44]

I know a Mariella. I think it's a nice name. I have never thought contraceptive about it! Ella is a bit boring.

[Tootsiepops]

It was on my shortlist, but husband vetoed it :(

[BlueChampagne]

I'm with Ouch44 - go for it!

[MitzyLeFrouf]

I like it too.

[QuietWhenReading]

Pretty.

[Sophronia]

I prefer Marietta

[flanjabelle]

Love it.

[MitzyLeFrouf]

Marietta biscuits! They make Digestives look exciting.

[IoraRua]

I love it

[MissBattleaxe]

I think its pretty, but don;t shorten it to Ella or Ellie as that's way overdone now.

[Custard314]

I really like it. Perhaps I prefer Marielle though.

[breezeharbour]

"Mariella, Mariella
Pretty, pretty girl
Mariella, Mariella
Happy in her own little world"

Second name I've seen on this topic that's made me think of a song!
I really like it

[ThenLaterWhenItGotDark]

It's just a short form of Maria.

Millions of them in Italy.

They are all between 35-50.

[midsomermurderess]

I really like it and Mariella Frostrup shows you can also be ballsy with such a pretty name.

[handonhip]

Really love Marielle. OH vetoed.

[MissAlabamaWhitman]

My name is Marielle.

I think that on balance id have preferred Mariella.
My name gets shortened to Maz, not Ella or Elle but then I am in my thirties. I don't know any thirty year old Elle/Ellie's, plenty of five year old ones though

[Rosaaa]

I like it

[LeonoraFlorence]

I know a little Mariella. She really suits it :)
