Both are very sweet little girls. Rebekah is Jewish, with thick, curly black hair. Charlotte has light brown hair.
I love both names, although I prefer Rebecca.

I had a friend in 7th grade named Rebekah and she was sweet, but wild, and turned out to be a bit of a partier. But I always loved that spelling. That name rhymes with my Polish maiden name so it was always a joke nickname of mine with a lot of people. So I opted to use it as my daughter's middle name since my maiden name is definitely not middle name material, this was the next best thing. And I went with Rebekah because I think it's way cooler than Rebecca. Though if you want to use the nickname Becca, then I think Rebecca makes much more sense.

Charlotte in our current top two. It also brings to mind sweet people, but it also makes me think of the only Charlotte I've ever known in real life, who was a very kind and generous woman, but also incredibly strong.

I like Charlotte well enough, but don't like Rebekah at all.
I prefer the spelling Rebecca. The "k" and "h"-ending on the other one throws me off.

Rebekah: Jewish, maybe. Long, wavy black hair. I once had a babysitter named Rebecca and this is what she looked like, so... ^^

Charlotte: Cinnamon-coloured hair. Sweet, maybe a little timid, feminine/girly (baby pink and frills sometimes comes to mind, lol O_o;).

I like Charlotte and Rebekah.

I like Charlotte a lot- Rebecca no
Charlotte- I guess a sweet pretty little girl
Rebecca- a sheltered, overly religious girl
but I would prefer Rebecca to Rebekah

I'm a Rebecca/Becky. Growing up I knew more Rebeccas, but now I tend to meet more Rebekahs. With one in particular, we always joke about who has the "correct" spelling.

I've known Rebeccas/Rebekahs of all personalities. Even though I've only known 2 Charlottes, who were both a bit odd, the name makes me think of a sweet person.

Charlotte makes me think of a sweet, timid girl with light brown hair. I don't know about Rebecca.
I love Charlotte, but I don't care for Rebecca.
Rebecca is definitely the preferred spelling though.

Rebekah is my middle name, so that's my preference.

One of my cousin's daughters is a Rebekah.

I have a cousin named Rebekah, and I definitely prefer that spelling.

I love both of those names. I think I like Rebecca better, but hmmmm.... I think both ways are lovely.

my daughters middle name is rebecca but i like both spellings. i semi regret not naming her rebekah instead since i did want to go with a biblical name but im close enough.

Cute little girls in frilly dresses with pinafores, both with brown hair teased into curls. Or maybe naturally curly. They're standing in front of a flower bed and one is looking out, while the other has her head slightly ducked and is holding a water can, she's also standing back a step. The shy one is Charlotte, the one staring is Rebecca. Rebecca is wearing red, while Charlotte is wearing a pale blue, and Rebecca's hair is just a tad darker than Charlotte's.


I prefer the spelling Rebecca, because that's what I'm used to.

I don't like Charlotte or Rebecca in general, but if I had to decide, I like that spelling better than Rebekah. Charlotte is a fine name, it's just not my style at all...the girls I've known with that name were stuck up, so it holds bad connotations.

i'm thinking salem witch trails. see also: goodie brown. but they are adorable names. i love them. i like the k. imo it isn't annoying like most other alternate spellings.

Charlotte has fair skin, with blue eyes and blonde hair. Rebekah is black with brown eyes and black hair. I don't care for either of the names, but I do prefer Rebekah over Rebecca.
