Baby Names

Not for me but pretty

There's a french baby girl name that I don't hear on here but I think is beautiful.  It's a name that I can't use but thought maybe someone would enjoy it.  What do you think?

 

Guerline - (Gir-leen)

Re: Not for me but pretty

  • makes my mouth want to say, "girly". I think its odd.

  • I don't think the green pukey face is necessary...haha.  It's a classic french name.  It's not like I posted Neveah or something.

    I wouldn't use it, but I kind of like it because it reminds me of Guerlain, my favorite perfume.

    I think it's pretty if you are French. 

    It also immediately made me think of Guerlain, visually, even though the pronunciation is different. I don't like the root "guer" because it has a tendency to be mispronounced/misspelled by Americans. It was part of my maiden name and caused me much grief. And as far as French names go, there are far prettier ones than this, IMO.

    I actually thought  of the perfume too.  Like I said, not for me but I do think it's pretty. 

  • I don't think it translates well . . . some names cross borders, others remain national classics in their own right. This is an example of the latter.
  • NMS at all.

    This is what I thought of too! I used to love Champs-Elysees perfume by Guerlain. I too think it's pretty if you're French.

  • As PPs have said, I'm sure it sounds different/ better in a French accent, but the way you have it written out makes me think of the Irish term girleen- a diminutive version of girl.
