What are your thoughts on the name Liesel (pronounced Lee-zel) for a girl? Do you know any?

I know a GP with the name. She's Irish so I can't link that in?!

Liesl - why wouldn't anyone German use this name?
What are popular German girls names?

Interesting

Thus German first names must:
• be recognised as proper names – they cannot be absurd or degrade the child in any way.
• not associate with evil (eg. Satan or Judas) or be insensitive to religious feelings (eg. Christus or Jesus cannot be German names).
• not be a brand, a surname, an object or the name of a place.
• indicate the child's gender – if a neutral German first name is chosen, then a second name must be added that is gender specific.

What about Frieda?
