I'd be very shocked if anyone mistook Ari (pronounced with the 'ah' to rhyme with 'car') for a girl to be honest.

@Pandypuff it's Ariana Grande's nickname so younger people will.

I'm not keen, personally. But I like names to have at least one strong consonant. Ari is almost "not there". It's like a breath. It's just... Ari.

Thanks All! I don't know Ariana Grande Grin , although I appreciate that Ariana is a girl's name and can be shortened to Ari.

Same with Alex and Alexander, Alexandra though! It's unisex, not the end of the world.

I thought R is a very strong consonant, one of the strongest maybe... at least in my home language.

I appreciate though that R is one of those letters that are pronounced differently in every country.

For example R is very strong in German and almost unnoticed in English...
