Thoughts on the name Adele?

[Fairygodmotherx]

It's not very popular at the moment which has drawn me to it more. What are people's opinions on this name?

I think it's gorgeous. But I think people will assume she's named after the singer, but that's certainly not a bad thing

I like it.

Love it.

Adela is nice too.

Love.

Don't do it. My name is Adele and i hate it :( I always wished i had a more tradtional name. what about madeleline? Maddy for short?x

Gorgeous name

There's an Adele in my dds year 3 class and I love it. I don't like the way it always seems to get shortened to Del though!

Love it, and a name I hadn't thought of yet myself so thank you!!x

It's a lovely name. Adela and Adelaide are nice too.

I think it's a lovely, sophisticated name.

Lovely. We considered it and also Adeline for DD.

I think it's lovely. Simple, understated, elegant.

I like it. Also Estelle which I find similar

I know a baby Adele. I think it's a lovely name.

It's very nice!

Sorry you're unhappy with it, Sunbeam. Why not?

I know an Adela,both variants are lovely

I like it.

There's also Edel which is very common in Ireland.

I think it looks nicer than it sounds. A Dell.

Adelina is lovely though.

Rookie i don't know really i suppose not many people do like their own names. I would loved to be called rachel or nicola lol

Adele and Edel are in my list. I like it. Uncommon but not try hard.

I was about to say Adele is lovely and unusual without being wacky but clearly an owner of the name thinks otherwise!

See, I have a top 5 name that was in the top 5 for about a decade either side of my birth year. There are thousands upon thousands of other "Rookies" around. Although I like my name very much, it would have been nice to have been named something less common as a child and teen.
