What would your choice be and why? From a long list i think it will be one of these 3. I like Annabel because it's versatile- nickname Bel maybe, me and DH have always liked Elsie and Matilda is another one i keep coming back to.

Elsie

Annabel is my least favourite as it’s too popular, Annabels are everywhere! There are however loads of Matildas and Tillys. Elsie is wonderful IMO.

Genuinely like all of them!!

I like Annabel, I think it’s more versatile as could be long form for an adult and shortened nicely as a nickname when younger (or just generally..). But if you don’t like shortening then I’d go Elsie Smile

I love Annabel although personally would go for the Annabelle spelling - I know it's a bit too 'frilly' for some though!
