Mabel?

[Polkadotfanatic]

Yay or Nay? :)

Yay...love it

I love it too !!

It's my dd2's name, and it's still my favourite name out of all my dds! But I like the fact that there aren't many Mabels around, so don't choose it, please!!

Yes, I like it very much :)

Not for me, I like "old lady" names but this is too frumpy for me. Although my grandmother was Mabel so that may have effected my perception.

I know a little one born about 3 months ago. Hipster parents.

Love it. Was top of my list but dh vetoed it.

Sorry, don't like it. Seems an ugly name to me. Sort of like Gertrude.

I saw Maybell recently and thought it looked prettier. No idea if it's an established name or a madey-uppy.

Nay

I think Mabel sounds like a fairy - although I don't know I'd it means this ...

"Amiable and loving. A dear companion"

:) Beautiful :)

I only like May-belle, the sound is pretty but the look is plain iyswim.

I love it. It makes me think about the TV show "Mad About You". They said on the show that it stood for Mothers Always Bring Extra Love. Beautiful

I'm not keen. I prefer more feminine looking/sounding names for girls.

Not keen - I knew of a cat called Mabel!

Dont mind older style names but prefer things like Martha, Matilda, Madeline.

I am not sure. I put it with the name Myrtle................there is a certain charm there but.......................?

Mabel is awful..even my Mother hates it and it's her middle name and she is old.

It is as bad as Brenda which is my Auntie's name.

Myrtle the turtle.

A nay from me, sorry.

Lovely

Nay.It's horrid.

sorry but its a old woman name, cant imagine any teenager appreciating having that name!

My grandma was Mabel and so is DD. It's a lovely name. We know another Mabel of the same age so it is returning as a popular name.

Reminds me of The Wilfred Pickles Show on the radio when I was little.."What's on the table,Mabel?" said in broad Yorkshire. Can't like it,sorry.

It will be as common as Violet and Ivy this time next year. Every hipster is on this one.
