    Comment left Jun 30, 2009: "I named my son Abel. He was born 12 weeks early. He needed a strong breath, and Abel means breath... It worked, he is growing well and very healthy. I believe it is a strong name. It is unique without being 'strange'. I don't have a problem with people pronouncing it wrong... just spelling it wrong (able)." (Report as inappropriate)
