Who wants to know if Danielle is ready for a comeback. I'm undecided. What do you think?

It's a pretty name but still dated and a bit c I think. Daniella is lovely.

Gabriella?

Not for me. I also dont like the nicknames that come with it

However, her dad says Danny Elle and her mum Dan yell

Are you suggesting they are both wrong? How would you say it?!

I don’t like it, but it’s fine to use. Gabrielle or Raphaelle are nicer though.

Naomimi · 11/10/2019 14:52

Also agree that Daniella is better.

FizzyGreenWater · 11/10/2019 14:59

No.

Still too dated I think. Daniella/Daniela would work better nowadays.

Jellycat00 · 12/10/2019 09:35

I like it

CravingCheese · 12/10/2019 17:15

I prefer Daniela tbh.

Nonameyet1 · 12/10/2019 18:25

I haven’t heard it for ages but I quite like it. Yes why not bring it back.

No in any form, unfortunately it is a bit C word for now. Although the thought of Dan-yell with a french accent sounds beautiful. But unless you're french it will rarely be said with a french accent so...

The variant Daniella reminds me straightaway of Daniella Westbrook and Dani of Dannii Minogue.....

No I like it. I dont think its chavvy at all. Sweet on a younger child, cool on a teenager, sensible enough for an adult. I like the name Daniella too. I dont think it sounds dated at all though it is unusual now so you won't get 3 in her class, which is always a bonus imo.

I like it. My girl has an 80s name :-)
