ADELA  

Gender: F
Origin: German
Meaning: "noble, nobility"

This variation of Adele sounds fresher than the original by virtue of the a ending. Look for it to replace other A names that are beginning to flag.

Adela is being discussed in our message boards:

• sister name for Sabine
• Twin Girl Names...
• Siblings for Leora and Julian?
• a normal baby naming game
• Ellie? Opinions, suggestions for a middle name too :-)
