A name I've never heard of.. WDYT?

I'm a substitute teacher and I often hear names I've never heard of, but this one really surprised me: Daxibel, pronounced like you'd assume.. like Isabel, Dax as in axe.

WDYT? Totally made up or have you seen it before? The girl was Hispanic, fwiw. The name made me think of Dax from Star Trek. :) I thought it was interesting... not bad, kinda pretty, NMS.

I wonder if it's some Spanish form of Dulcibella/Dowsabel? Probably not, but that would be cool!

Interesting! My first response was: EW NO...but the more I pronounced it and looked at it, the more I think it's actually kind of cool.

Horrifying! It's like they took two names and smushed them together.

This might be weird, but to me, x is a very masculine letter. It's strange to see it in a girl's name!

So I just Googled the name out of curiosity, and it seems to be a name most often used in Venezuela (though as to its actual popularity there, I'm not sure about).
