Do you think this would be the best spelling, or do you like on of these:
Shantelle
Chantelle
Shantal
*I like the classic spelling "Chantal"

Chantal is pronounced Sh-ahn-tall

It's a bit French-fried for my tastes, but it *is* a classic. If you went with Chantal, it would be fine.
Chantelle, Shantel, Shantylle and so on, however, are decidedly downmarket.
Stick with the original.

I like the classic spelling. Oh when you spell it with an "sh" it's no longer Chantal; phonetically that is.

It's okay, but keep the normal spelling (Chantal).

I find it slightly chavvy.
But Chantal is fine, Shantelle or Chantelle is not!

I like it. Reminds me of sweet smelling perfume. Very spellable, very pronounceable, and easy on the ears. Your spelling is right. Chantal.

I tihnk it sound pretentious.
But if you like it, I would go with traditional spelling otherwise she's going to go through her whole life explaining how to spell it.
