I'm just thinking that a name where there is no element of duality to the usage within a country can change the potential customer demographic. For example, Sam could be Samantha or Samuel or other variants. It has duality making it's usage sexually ambiguous to the purtrchaser where, in England at least, to the best of my knowledge Neil is a common name completely assoicated with the male of the species (though I'm sure that there are probably a few exceptions out there to that genral rule).
Maybe if you want to stick with that go for the Irish spelling (Nial) which could be a little more vague (though possibly not in Ireland).
Appologies, I don't want discussion over a sales name to duistract from the flow of the thread welcoming a beautiful young lady to the fold. I just don't want to see her sales affected by misconceptions due to a name.
kindest regards,

I think it's actually going to be Nell, not Neil. I have already asked DS to change their spelling, Neil is not the best name for this Beautiful Lady!
Although I think that Neil could possibly grow on me!
...Maybe we should stick with Neil...
