Annabel

Annabel. Beautiful name!

daisypond · 11/02/2019 17:05

Too frilly, I mean. Definitely not "to".

Annabel.
Annabelle is to frilly - but OK if you're French.
Annabell is just odd. - the "bell" bit. The name has nothing to do with bells. It's from "belle" - beautiful - which then is anglicised to "bel".

Anabel looks like something medical.

Annabel - looks best imho

Annabelle- looks too fussy even though the nickname Belle is appealing.

Annabel is really nice. Annabelle is unnecessarily frilly (plus wasn't there a horror film about a doll called Annabelle?). The others look a bit misspelled.

Annabelle.

Anabel looks too muck like Anal at a glance imo.

SemperIdem · 11/02/2019 16:22

I prefer the Annabel spelling.

MikeUniformMike · 11/02/2019 14:01

I'm not a guy, but Annabel is the only spelling I like.
Anabel and Annabell look like typos and with Annabelle the extra le seem a bit pointless.

I like Annabel best. Annabelle looks too frilly and fussy and Anabel just looks wrong - like it should be pronounced a-naybul, with the last bit like Mabel.
