Faelin..?

Met a little girl at the doctors office today with this name. Opinions?

    My former boss's daughter was named this but I am almost certain it was spelled differently, maybe Falen or Phalen... pronounced fail-in

    I like it, not sure about that spelling though, it's kind of strange. It looks like something that belongs in a fantasy book

    Her parents are faelin' at naming their babies. 

    I am so, so sorry. I couldn't stop myself.

    Yeah, it sounds like failing. Also reminds me of Bristol and Sarah Palin who I think are obnoxious and I wish they would go away.

    Weird looking name.  Phelan was a common last name where I grew up- reminds me too much of a last name.

     This was my exact thought! I didn't want to put it in my original post because I wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one who thought it. I had to ask twice what her name was and then all I could think was wow, "baby name fail" lol

    The pronunciation of this name literally means 'the mistake/error' in Norwegian...

    So no. No thanks. No

    I've heard this name twice recently on teens. It sounds like failing to me, or at least it is pronounced exactly the same as "failing" with the regional accent around here.

    I pronounced it as the word "failing".  What a way to set your kid up for failure.

    My friend's baby is called Felan. It means "little wolf"- I think it is absolutely killer.
