Definitely Annabel! That is what we're going to call dd2. Holly is sweet but don't think it works with an "H" surname and it is a bit more cutesy and "of the moment".

Annabel

Holly is a bit weak in comparison.

halfdoneharris · 11/06/2014 14:17

I love Holly but not if middle name is Hope AND last name begins with 'H' - too many of one letter.
Annabel is is!

Wishfulmakeupping · 11/06/2014 19:36

Annabel is lovely

Annabel

Holly. I love a bit of alliteration, and I love the name Holly.

IsabellaRoarsome · 11/06/2014 20:45

Holly! Every time I come across a newborn Annabel I hear sings baybee anaaaabeeeeel from the doll advert!

Mrsindecision · 11/06/2014 21:43

Annabel for me by a long way.

Casey123 · 11/06/2014 22:00

Holly gets my vote.

Delphiniumsblue · 11/06/2014 22:06

Annabel. Holly doesn't go with a summer baby.

Love both of them, but if I have to choose one - Annabel

Rtfairy · 11/06/2014 22:13

Both are so lovely I just can't choose.

The thing with Annabel is you can do more with it. It gives more flexibility, while still being a lovely name in its own right. Anna, Ann, Annie, Bella, etc.

All my kids have names that you can't do much with and frankly I regret that. I love the names, but I do wish (as the proud owner of tweens/teens) I'd chosen ones that give them more scope to personalise them as they get older.

Annabel

Holly - have to disagree with poster above as I think Holly Hope sounds great.

HenI5 · 12/06/2014 16:46

But she wouldn't be Holly Hope anyway, she'd be Holly Catherine Hope Surname.

Holly Hope sounds like a chiclit heroine to me Smile
