Where it comes from

The story of Gabryelle

Gabrielle Roy grew up in Manitoba and moved to Montreal, where she wrote The Tin Flute, a novel about a poor family in the working-class district of Saint-Henri during the Second World War. It was one of the first novels to show French Canadian city life plainly, and it won France's Prix Femina. Gabryelle writes the same name with a y in place of the i, a spelling that no older form uses.

Fashion outlook

Gabryelle sits outside the current charts, and that is its own kind of answer: naming cycles can only date the names they carried up. A name this rare has no decade stamped on it — it cannot go out of fashion, because it was never in.
