Hello, I am a new memeber of this community.  I am 16 years old, H.S Junior so I don't plan to have children for at least 10 years. But I still keep a notebook of names w/ their meanings.  I usually like names that aren't that popluar and foreign.  I am a sucker for almost any name with "elle" ending: Brielle, Mireille, Daniellle etc.

Ok, but you know Mireille isn't pronounced like it has -elle on the end, don't you? Nor is it actually spelled with -elle on the end, you've spelled it two different ways in this post and only one of them is correct. (I'm more than usually protective about that particular name.)

Yeah, people suck at the French language. Philistines, the lot of them.

I think it is pronounced like Mirel, well that's the way I pronounce it.

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

Mih-rrray, with a rolled R. There's almost a 'ch' (like loch, not church) about the 'mih' sound, too.

The French R isn't a rolled R in the way that the Spanish or Arabic ones are, though.

I am aware of that. My close friend's name is Mirelle, and she plans to change it to Mireille before graduation.

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

If it's pronounced Mirel then it's a corruption of the original. She'd be wise to learn how to pronounce the new name. (The Italian equivalent is Mirella which is pronounced as it looks, if that would make life easier for her.)
