NN for Gabrielle

[Sugarmuppet]

Can't believe after 9 months the whole family still can't agree on this...

DD is Gabrielle Lily. She will be known as Gaby. How the fuck on earth do you spell it?

Gaby (me)
Gabi (oh)
Gabby (my mum)
Gabbi (mil)
Gabbie (sil)

Don't want everyone forever spelling her name differently. She would have been Gaby instead of Gabrielle on her birth certificate if we could have agreed on a spelling

I would spell it Gabby

AFAIK they are all correct, so I guess you will just have to pick one.
I have a Steph, who insists on Stef :)

I think Gabby looks like it sounds, Gaby looks a bit like Gay-be?

Berry thats what Mum thinks too...'Gaby the baby? how can you possibly call her that?!'

I'm with you,

Gaby

I think Gabby looks best.

I would spell it Gabbi rather than with a y because of the i in Gabrielle

Anyway she might decide when she grows up she doesn't want to be a Gabbi/Gaby/Gabby and use her full name - I did as soon as I was old enough to make my own mind up!!

My friend has a Gabrielle and she is Gabri. Maybe that would save the trouble lol

Latin Americans normally spell this as Gaby.. I think if you live in the UK, Gabby is probably a more correct spelling..

I think Gaby!
