Annabelle

We are pretty much set on Annabelle. It goes really nicely with Clara our other DD.

DH is very keen on Charlotte as a middle name as it's his favourite but we ruled it out due to popularity.

Question is Annabelle Charlotte too much of a mouthful? If so any helpful suggestions?

Annabelle is too fussy for me & I much prefer Annabel, but it does work with Charlotte as a middle name.

Beautiful name

Sorry hadn't realized that you were asking whether Charlotte went with Annabelle not whether Annabelle went with Clara in which case yes they go together well but like pp I think the Annabel spelling goes better.

Good name i have an annabelle shes 9. Now middle name

I'm pregnant at the moment and my two front runners are Clara and Annabel...lovely names. I think Annabel Charlotte is lovely (I think I do prefer the simpler spelling though).

Annabelle Charlotte is lovely!

Sandstormbrewing · 21/08/2018 19:58

I instantly thought of Thomas the tank engine too! Both ok on their own but not don't like them together.

Quizeerascal · 21/08/2018 19:29

Clara and Annabelle together remind me of Thomas the Tank engine, not that thats necessarily a bad thing and they're both lovely names.

I prefer Annabel spelling. I think it's nice with Charlotte . It's not too long unless you have to embroider it on school uniform 😉

Peachbubble · 21/08/2018 19:02

Both lovely names and fine together

Cbeebiesrehab · 21/08/2018 19:00

I too prefer the Annabel spelling but think it’s a lovely name regardless and goes well with Charlotte IMO :)

pipilangstrumpf · 21/08/2018 18:35

Annabel is much nicer. Don't like Annabelle.

daisypond · 21/08/2018 18:31

Annabel is better, I think. Annabelle looks slightly affected/prissy to me. But it goes fine alongside Charlotte.

WhatAmISupposedToBeDoing · 21/08/2018 18:03

The combination makes me think of Annie and Clarabelle, Thomas the Tank engine's coaches.

Enidblyton1 · 21/08/2018 18:00

They are fine together OP.
You’ll hardly ever say the names together anyway - unless you actually want her to be known by her two first names.

I prefer Annabel, but yes they sound good together.

pipilangstrumpf · 21/08/2018 17:53

Much prefer it spelled Annabel! But yes they go well together.
