Arabella
Delilah
Matilda

These are my favourites, in this order. Could I ask for opinions on your favourite out of them?

Delilah
Matilda
Arabella

RolyPolierThanThou · 06/03/2015 20:34

Delilah is a nice name but she'll get that infernal song sung at her (the tom Jones one. The other song is ok).

Matilda is the nicest of the three imo.

Bowlersarm · 06/03/2015 20:37

Arabella, I love. Not keen on the other two.

Mamafratelli · 06/03/2015 20:54

Arabella or Matilda.

haleandhearty · 06/03/2015 20:55

I like Arabella first then Matilda. Don't really like Delilah - how about Delia? Or Daphne? Or even Thalia?

rockinrobintweet · 06/03/2015 20:56

Delilah and Arabella have both been on my list. i think Delilah is my fav!

Needalifecoach · 06/03/2015 20:56

Matilda. Not keen on the other two at all. Arabella next at a push.

FunkyPeacock · 06/03/2015 20:57

Matilda is my favourite

ScooseIsLoose · 06/03/2015 20:57

Love arabella

AmysTiara · 06/03/2015 20:59

I like Matilda but I am not fussed on the other two sorry

montyandmabel · 06/03/2015 21:03

Matilda
Delilah
Arabella

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 06/03/2015 21:10

Don't like any sorry OP. But Matilda is the prettiest.

FaktiskErJegIkkeEnNerd · 06/03/2015 21:12

Not keen on any of them. Arabella is my least favourite 'bella' name. What about Annabella or Christabel. Delilah is too biblical. I like Delia though.

Matilda is ok. Neither nice nor not nice. Very ok.

InQuiteAPickle · 06/03/2015 21:14

Delilah
Arabella
Matilda

Love Delilah, it's just a shame about the song.

DramaAlpaca · 06/03/2015 21:39

I love Arabella & it's less popular than Matilda, which I also like.

Not too keen on Delilah, probably because of the song.

DilysDerwent · 06/03/2015 21:43

I love Matilda and Arabella. Don't really like Delilah.

BellMcEnd · 06/03/2015 21:45

Arabella (although I prefer Arabel)
Matilda
Delilah

Matilda and Delilah are both nice, don't like Arabella.

BlueStarsAtNight · 06/03/2015 21:50

I like

Arabella
Matilda
Delilah

In that order

Penguinotterfoxbadger · 06/03/2015 23:37

Matilda and Delilah are nice.

Really dislike Arabella I'm afraid.. It just sounds snooty to my ears..

RJnomore · 06/03/2015 23:40

Matilda - roald Dahl book
Delilah - Tom jones song

Arabella - overly nervous and connected to inbred Arab ponies. Could not possibly name a female child I wanted taken seriously in the world arabella.

Sorry - I guess we have totally different tastes.

Iwasbornin1993 · 07/03/2015 05:40

Matilda is my definite favourite out of all three!

TobyLerone · 07/03/2015 05:46

Matilda is quite common.

I like them in your order, OP.

And Arabs are horses, not ponies.

SoupDragon · 07/03/2015 05:48

I dislike Delilah - not just because of the Tom Jones song but also the biblical character betrayed Samson.

Arabella i think sounds like someone from Made In Chelsea.

I'd have to go with Matilda from your list.
