I'm not keen, it's too frilly and also sounds a bit like areola.

I prefer Arielle.

SilverOtter · 23/12/2020 19:18

I think it's pretty

bridgetreilly · 23/12/2020 19:16

Well, if you both really like it, why do you need other thoughts?

Ellmau · 23/12/2020 19:14

It's lovely.

NeonSparkle · 23/12/2020 17:19

Reminds me of areola

Nell96 · 23/12/2020 17:10

Bit frilly for me, like Aurora, Ilaria, Amelia etc.

SionnachRua · 23/12/2020 16:01

Very frilly.

Bit nothing-y I think.... I think there are lovely long feminine names with more strength and history -

Random egs - Isabella, Rosaria, Alexandra, Arabella, Sophia, Theodora, Serena, Diana, Aurelia, Seraphina etc

Ariella just sounds kinda made up.

I think it's pretty and feminine but I also think it's ok...as partyatthepalace says

It's a fairy inspired name.

Vitaminsss · 23/12/2020 15:27

I think I like Arielle or Aria more

Ariel washing powder or the little mermaid...
Gabriella?

DramaAlpaca · 23/12/2020 15:26

It's very pretty but too frilly for me.

partyatthepalace · 23/12/2020 15:26

It's OK.

If we'd had girls not boys one of our twins would have been Ariella

Changethetoner · 23/12/2020 15:23

Pretty, feminine.
