Also have a double-barrelled surname...so thinking something short, but I want something with a lovely meaning too? Also A names out as don't want AA initials!

I used to know an Arrabella Antoinette!

Rose has been used by someone very closely related recently...so hard! I love the names Estelle, Hermione and Beatrice but thinking it will be too long...tongue-tying etc?

Arabella Estelle
Arabella Hermione

My dd is Arabella Scarlett. Rose seems to be the universal middle name - know about 16 girls under 5 with it, May is uber popular too.

Arabella Kate, my dd was very nearly this....love it!!

Well, if it helps, I know you're looking for something short but my friend's daughter is Arabella Beatrix Minerva.

Joy works the bess of the names listed here I think.
Rose would work too actually, but avoid it.

theroseofwait · 08/09/2010 21:20

DS2 would have been Arabella Florence had he been DD1. . .

BCBG · 08/09/2010 21:23

I have Arabella Hope.... or you could use Grace, Faith. etc?

blindhorse1 · 08/09/2010 22:15

Arabella Lucy sounds really lovely

EsmeWatson · 09/09/2010 00:01

I love Arabella Catherine or Arabella Grace

Thanks everyone Smile Think I 've decided on Arabella May!

Arabella - beautiful altar.
May - The 5th month of the year was named after Maia, the Roman Earth Goddess. Meaning 'she who is great', growth, warmth and fertility.
