For context, I live in the U.S in a rural setting, so my only concern is these names would be too difficult to wear here due to pronunciation/rarity. WDYT?
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Orla[/name_f]
[name_f]Raffaella[/name_f]
Some of them have gained some prominence recently (Delphine as a celeb baby name, [name_f]Mirabel[/name_f] as a [name_f]Disney[/name_f] character) so… maybe they won’t seem so wild?
I think these would be fine!
I think of the names [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is totally usable!! I would love to meet one. Sweet, recognizable but interesting as it feels uncommon. Totally wearable!
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f] also seems usable. I can see or understand abit of the reservations, but in the long run I think it is fine! Nicknames [name_f]Mimi[/name_f], [name_f]Mira[/name_f] and [name_f]Belle[/name_f] are super sweet and totally normal.
The other 3 are more concerning in my opinion. [name_f]Raffaella[/name_f] being least concerning of the 3. Only because at least for me it is soo difficult to say or at least I find it is. I trip over my tongue everytime I say it. I feel awkward that the only way I can pronounce it is by slowly sounding out each syllable. It just doesnt flow off the tongue naturally, in my opinion. For that reason, I would pass on this name.
[name_f]Orla[/name_f] is next… I find this unusable for me due to teasing potential. The last two letters rearranged spell ‘oral’ and I know kids especially middle-high school will take that and run with it. [name_m]Even[/name_m] the pronounciation sounds very similar to ‘oral’, so I dont think it can be missed. I think the name couldve been nice in theory, but I just wouldnt do it.
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f] I think is most unusable. In my opinion this is mostly down to teasing potential again. The strong first syllable being @$$ just doesn’t appeal or sit well with me at all. I find it very harsh and blunt in sound. I think kids would automatically try to use that as a nickname. It just seems very cruel to me, in my opinion, to put this on a child realizing half their name is composed of a swear word. [name_f]My[/name_f] heart just wouldn’t beable to do that nor would I beable to unhear it. And as for the rest of the name together it just doesnt appeal in sound its is very harsh and abrupt of a name.
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f], [name_f]Delphine[/name_f], & [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] are all very usable. [name_f]Raffaella[/name_f] would potentially come with some spelling issues but I think it would still be fine.
I hesitate on Orla’s usability, at least in the US where it remains an unfamiliar name. It’s just SO close to “oral” both visually and in pronunciation. In a region where it’s a more established name then sure it would be fine but at least in the US where it’s nearly unheard-of, it just seems a little too ripe for teasing.
All usable for me.
I really like all these names!
Am not in the context you are, but I agree that the most straightforward, and potential-teasing-proof are [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]. [name_f]Rafaella[/name_f] might get the “is it Raffa-ella or Raffay-ella” hesitation. [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] and [name_f]Orla[/name_f] are beyond fab names, imo, just if you’re already concerned about their reception generally, you might want to skip these trickier names.
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f] → I feel like a lot of people would recognise this as a Scandinavian name? [name_m]Even[/name_m] if it surprises them it doesn’t feel too outlandish
[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] → sleek and pretty. I think it’s similar enough in sound to [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and [name_f]Delilah[/name_f] that it doesn’t feel too out there
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f] → easy to say, similar to [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], [name_f]Isabel[/name_f], [name_f]Mara[/name_f], [name_u]Maria[/name_u], [name_f]Mia[/name_f] etc. and the [name_f]Disney[/name_f] association makes it more familiar
[name_f]Orla[/name_f] → easy to say, and where I am (UK), very familiar, but it might give people pause if theyve never heard it before?
[name_f]Raffaella[/name_f] → it has flair and brightness, but I think a lot of people would know of the name Rafael/Raphael, so it wouldn’t feel unusable.
All usable to me!
They are all beautiful but I think [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is the most fool proof option.
I think all are usable, but I just wanted to pop in and give a word of comfort regarding [name_f]Raffaella[/name_f]! I taught a youngster with that name years ago and it was perfectly fine, no pronunciation issues or anything. 
[name_f]Beautiful[/name_f] names all around!
In my opinion, they are mostly usable (unless you make a lot of typos and type [name_f]Orla[/name_f] as oral. [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] is my favourite.
@SimplyMe I was confused about the [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] thing until I remembered that I say S as an almost SH if it comes before a T and after another letter (My problem with Anastasia)
I live in a fairly small town and I have met someone with every one of these names except for raffella! I think their all totally usable!
