Someone posted a little while back about anglicizing names and it made me think of a name I really like in English, but not in its original Hebrew pronunciation:

Jael (Jay-el) or "Yah-el" in Hebrew.

Part of the appeal of the name is that she was a bad-arse Biblical character. Plus, it's just sounds pretty and strong, to me.

Thoughts?

YES! I remember her, haha! She was quite interesting! I have too many ANTM name associations :-p

Yeah, I love the story, too :) She was pretty brave, I think it's a good namesake.
