Oh, wait, I googled, Ofelia is apparently the Spanish or Italian way to spell this name.

Still, if you live in the UK, she will have to spell her name, over and over.

Ophelia.

TheProvincialLady · 29/09/2008 11:29

Yes but why would you spell it that awful way?

NotQuiteCockney · 29/09/2008 11:29
  1. it's spelt 'Ophelia'.
  1. it's after a character in Shakespeare who goes mad and drowns herself. Which isn't necessarily the best association.
TillyScoutsmum · 29/09/2008 11:28

Spelt like that - no

Ophelia quite pretty though

FrockHorror · 29/09/2008 11:28

Lovely, but prefer the spelling Ophelia
