So for personal reasons would love to use Muriel but really dont find i love it as a name more sentimental reasons. It means 'sparkling, shining sea' which i think is just beautiful. Ive looked at related names and came across Mariella and i think its lovely and it means 'star of the sea'.
So i guess im wondering what people think as id hate to think anyone would find it amusing, a bit too out there as its not very common. I guess its quite a mermaid like name?
Thoughts apreciated.

Knew a lovely little Mariella - think its a very good name as well!

Absolutely beautiful, classic, feminine, not overly used and will equally suit a newborn and grown up, good choice! I'd keep quiet in RL to guard that one!
