Christelle
Christelle Cho - (pronounced Chris - tell and Cho is Ch - o) I love this name... to me it is very pretty and feminine. Christelle means 'Clear as ice', not sure where it is from. I can only assume it originated from Crystal. Cho is Japanese, and means butterfly. These two combined makes up one of my favourite names.
