原文: My name is Jaela. Pronounced JAY-la. I have always really loved my name. It's somewhat simple (even if it's often mispronounced due to the spelling). I can't really recall anything bad about my name to date. Although, I will have to agree with some of the "jail" comments. If a person with a British or certain other European accent is introduced to me, they have to say it a few times because they automatically think of "Jailer".
原文: If you study Hebrew, or the bible - it's quite the compliment. I was always impressed with Jael, obviously being smart and strong and stood for her convictions. What I really like is how the ibex can move across cliffs - not that our paths will be smooth, but that our feet would be like an ibex.

翻译文: 2015年，在美国出生的150名女孩和128名男孩被提名为Jael。
原文: The name Jael was given to 150 girls and 128 boys born in the US in 2015.
原文: Well my name is Jael... and people do not confuse me with 'jail' as much as you would think... I didn't like my name but I now understand it. I knew about the biblical version- the brave woman who killed the general with a simple tool and I always aspired to be like her- fearless etc, but I never liked the mountain goat affiliation. But now I realize that I am a Capricorn and that's my symbol... a mountain goat... practical, stable, loyal, workaholic. I am now in love with my name.
原文: My name is Jael and I pronounce it Jay-elle. The "jail" thing gets a bit annoying, as does "what does that stand for?" And introducing myself to people and having to repeat myself. But overall, I really don't mind the name and couldn't imagine having a common one in place of it.
原文: For those concerned that the pronunciation is too close for comfort to 'jail', consider using the original Hebrew pronuciantion - Yah-EL, whether you spell it with the Y or the J to start. This is my niece's name, we call her Yaeli.
原文: I love this name, especially when pronounced jay-ell. The meaning is a little strange but at the same time a mountain goat is a strong, hardy animal. I would consider using this as a middle name for a future daughter.
原文: If you are worried about the "jail" association you could also spell it Jaelle or Jaielle. This spelling looks less like the word jail and are also unique!
原文: There used to be a girl on Syfy Channel's Destination Truth named Jael. I liked her, but she left the show. She is the first person I had ever heard of with this name, and I thought it was very pretty.
原文: This is one of my favorite girls' names. When I think of a mountain goat, I think of something that climbs rocks better than most humans--and does so as a kid. If the ibex is anything like the American mountain goat, Jael will definitely be on my list of potential names for a daughter. I'd love to see a daughter become a skilled mountain climber.
原文: I heard about someone recently who named their daughter this. At first I thought what a unusual and beautiful name, but now it just seems like "jail" to me.
原文: I met an Israeli woman with this name. She pronounced it jah-EL. She said her parents gave it to her in hopes that she would be a strong, capable, tough as nails woman, like her Biblical namesake, who is famous for assassinating an Assyrian general by driving a tent peg through his head. Hmm.
原文: To the anonymous commentator above: In Hebrew this name specifically means this animal - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nubian_ibex - which is tough, graceful and in my opinion quite beautiful.If kids are named Deborah (bee) and Rachel (ewe), surely the Nubian Ibex is a worthy namesake.
原文: I am not crazy about this name. No offense to the Jaels out there, but it looks like 'jail' to me. And then there's the meaning - would you name your daughter something meaning 'mountain goat'? Really?

翻译文: Jael是电视节目“美国下一个顶级模特”上的女孩之一。
原文: Jael is one of the girls on the TV show "America's Next Top Model."
原文: I don't think so. Judges 4, 2 specifically says that Sesira (whom Jael killed eventually) was the commander of Canaanite king Jabin's army. No mention of Assyria as far as I can tell.

翻译文: 耶尔杀死的将军是亚述军队，而不是迦南人。
原文: The general that Jael killed was from the Assyrian army, not the Caananite.
