Ugh.
Rafaela is Spanish.
Raffaella is Italian (male versions are Raffaello and Raffaele)
Rafaella is mispelled.

heheh it's my too much time working at the computer, that's what :P
and, of course, our twin views on names too ;)

lol yeah I usually scan to see if you've commented because it just tends to be a repeat XD

Like I said once before, speaking many languages gives you a better grasp on this sort of thing, in my humble opinion anyway.

th3_unicorn got it right... and honestly i highly dislike Rafaela on girls, it's horribly sort of 'trashy' sounding in Spanish it's one of those names that show up on skits for ugly icky girls (like Ramona). Jordan is a name I've always liked on girls but wouldn't use it myself.

Rafaella isn't my style, but it's not horrible. I'm indifferent to Jordan.

Rafaella is a guilty pleasure name for me. It's all made of taffeta and flashing dark eyes and I adore it. But it's way too wild and woolly for me to actually use. Which makes it kind of nice to see someone else use it.

I don't mind Jordan, but it does not go well with Rafaella at all.

Rafaella is beautiful, Jordan totally effs it up!
