>>Well, it 'sounds' pretty anyway :o) In Spanish it is a derivative of 'Manuel.' I think it may derive from the name Emmanuel in Hebrew too. Of course, many languages have the same sounds but they have different meanings in each language. Update: my daughter just told me she has a friend in school whose name is Minel. The girl is 16 (sorry that was a typo earlier) and has a Turkish heritage (and she speaks 4 languages) so perhaps there is another meaning in Turkish or Arabic (as you said) for Minel?

>Maybe your daughter's friends name is "Mine". Mine is a common name in turkish. It's mean; you know tooth's white thin plate, I don't know what's in english. I heard "Minel" first in my life...
