    Yeah! That's right.

    I like the shortened version too.

    It is growing on me the more I say it!

    Thanks ladies

    I'm not a fan, but that is 'cause I've been addicted to Heroes and the bad guy's name is Gabriel. Before that I was ambivilent to it - its a good name, but the teasing factor at school if bullies shorten it to Gay.

    Hi Catherinemoses,

    my I've taught one and as for as teasing this never occurred to the kids for our Gabe (mind you it was a common tease to any one of the boys from any of them, unfortunately its still used by kids as an insult). Anyway for me it reminds me of the two Gabriels I've known, both outstanding kids who were such "people" people and coincidently?? both very bright. So a from me

    If Juliette was a boy she would have been Gabriel, so it gets my vote
