Sister for Annabelle

Just that really. We don't know the gender but we're decided on a name it its a boy. We love our DD's name and it really suits her and I love the nn options (she uses Annie and Belle depending on the wind direction!) but I am worried that we won't love another as much. Must be a name that has nn options but I would use the full name on birth certificate.

Other names that I love are:

Juliet nn Ettie (despite opting for the frillier, less mumsnet friendly spelling of Annabelle, I prefer the Juliet spelling rather than Juliette)

Charlotte nn Lottie ( don't love Charlotte but love love love Lottie)

Elisabeth nn Bess (again, more in love with the nn)

Felicity (though DH was unconvinced last time)

Josephine nn Josie

Other names that I like but cannot use are:

Beatrice
Alice
Eleanor
Emily
Olivia
Sophie
Rosa

DH says no to Florence, Constance, Prudence.

What else might I like / which of those names do you like best? Thanks!! Xx

Tessa?
Maria?

I think something ending in an 'a' would go well with Annabelle

Good Luck whatever you decide

I was going to suggest Charlotte.
