What do y'all think?

Hi folks,

I'm not pregnant and won't be for a few years, but I still think a lot about the names of my future children.

I ran across a name that I find really striking even though I've never heard it before - Mireille, pronounced meh-RAY (more or less). It's french/dutch, and means 'miracle' or 'admire' depending on what website you look at.

I love names with the "mir" sound in them for some reason, and I love french names. What nicknames could you use for this name? Does it sound too wacky, is the spelling too crazy? I think it looks beautiful and I love the meaning of it.

- L.

It looks and sounds really pretty but you would always have to correct people on the pronunciation.
