Have been mulling over this for a while... What associations do you have for each name? Any preference?

Can't decide whether Anna might be too plain and Annabel perhaps too frilly?

Help!

As explained on a previous thread,Anna is one of my least favourite names and always sounds really smug and boring to my ears.

I want to emphasise that this is totally irrational! Plenty of other people like the name and I know some nice Annas.

Annabel is ok. I really don't like Annabelle, but Annabel (again for some irrational reason!) seems a lot better than Anna and Annabelle.

Anna. Annabel is too fussy.

I love Annabel. She can then decide herself. She might even be a bella.

annabel reminds me of annoying girls. No idea why, I must have met an annoying annabel at some point.

I prefer Anna
