What’re your thoughts on the name Ritzel? I’m thinking of naming my daughter this name. [name]How[/name] to feel about it: classic? stylish? avant-garde? vintage? international? unisex? What middle name would you pair it up with? What other name would you choose if you’re not feeling it?
Reminds me of Schnitzel! sorry.
To be honest, it sounds like Pretzel to me. I can see the appeal to the name, sounding sort of exotic, but i think she would be prone to too much teasing! [name]How[/name] about these optins though?? Slightly exotic and unusual with the same feel:

I hope this helps! If you really love Ritzel then by all means go for it!
I’m not getting it. Is Ritzel a literary name that I don’t know about? Is it a family name? It seems like kind of a random sound to just pick out of the blue.
Too close to pretzel, I’m sorry 
Ritz cracker meets pretzel, sorry.
Where’d you get Ritzel? I’m not familiar with it as a first name or a surname. Honestly, I think of snack foods before name of any sort. And it reminds me of the word ‘ritzy’.
