Just that really.Is it pretentious? I just don't like the original spelling as much. Hubby grew up in Wales but not Welsh. Thoughts please.
Thanks

Love it, but am biased as I have an Alice.

I think it looks pretty but I would automatically pronounce it Alice, would probably think 'Alise' rather than Alice but it's a lovely name however you spell it.
