I met a girl named Aquarelle I thought it was just gorgeous. She told me that her father is an artist and it means water colors in french. She does not go by a nickname. What do you think of this name?
I love the meaning but I’m not in love with the sound. I actually think I’d like [name]Aquarius[/name] better.
Maybe if I heard it spoken I would like it. It reminds me of [name]Aqua[/name] Aerobics, which I like to do, but…
But wouldn’t [name]Aquarius[/name] be male?
To be polite, I’ll just say not my style.
honestly, sounds like a hand sanitizer.
I immediately thought of shave gel or hand sanitizer.
The meaning is wonderful, but I don’t care for the sound.
Aquarelle reminds me of “a quarrel.” I think it’s a really creative choice, though!
Take care!

Would it? It’s listed here as female. I’d use it for a girl before a I would a boy. Okay okay it’s not really my style 
. It would however make an interesting middle name for a either sex.

The original mythological character was male. Isn’t the -us ending normally male? I have to admit, it would be strange on a boy.
Thanks for the info. [name]Aquarius[/name]’ gender has been solved. 
It still feels more like a girls name to me but there are a lot of ancient names that appear more female when they are in fact male.
This has got me thinking about the other 11 signs of the zodiac and which I think feel more male or female.
lol it would be a perfect name for a hand sanitizer!
The meaning is pretty but it also struck me as having a “brand name” quality to it. [name]How[/name] did she pronounce it? Is it [name]Ah[/name]-kwa-rell, with the L sounds pronounced?
This, to me, is the name of a lovely French restaurant.
I don’t like it sorry. What about [name]Aqua[/name].
I must have a speech impediment because I can’t get my lips and tongue around the “kwa” and the “rel” next to each other.
