Does anyone know what my name, Keli Dannielle would look like in Sanskrit?

Hi, Keli!

It's my understanding, that those who are able to do that the best here, will need to have the exact, phonetic pronunciation in order to be the most accurate.

So, if you could provide that, it would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I'm not sure but I think you're saying you need me to spell my name the way it sounds. My name is spelled Keli Dannielle and It sounds like Kelly Danielle. I hope that helps.

Kehlee Danee-ell or something like that. Would that be close?

More like Kehlee Dan-yell. Not like Danny-ell. Does that make sense. Am I correct in assuming that when your name is translated into Sanskrit, it's not the letters you're trying to translate, but the sound of the letters?

Yes. You are correct. The sound of letters i.e. pronunciation is used to write name in Sanskrit letters. It is called transliteration. When actual meaning is converted to other language, it is called translation.

Transliteration is used for names & translation is used for words & sentences.

Hey I've written your name in 'devnagari' look alike script.
It's the script in which sanskrit is written.
Hope you will find it interesting.
