Colette or Collette?

flojo973

I'm thinking I like the name Collette for a girl but not sure of which spelling is more normal.  Thoughts?  Any other suggestions on pretty, feminine names?  Thanks!

We're you planning on pronouncing it Cole-ette (Colette) or Call-ette (Collette)?

Love Colette     I can't explain it but really dislike it with the extra L

Thanks everyone!  Although whenever I say it in my head I say it as Call-ette.  Can I still use the Colette spelling?  How are you guys pronouncing it in your head when its spelled Colette?

Colette pronounced Cole-ette.  I've never heard of Cal-ette.

Colette.  I pronounce it koh-lette

@Ceridwen21 - yes, that's how I'm doing it in my head.  NN would be Coco, so more of an "o" sound.

I think if you want to pronounce it Call-ette......you should have two L's to save her from a lot of "correcting" people.
