Verity or Annabelle

DD2 due next month, a sister for Felicity and we can't decide on a name. We love both Verity and Annabelle. Is Annabelle a bit boring and sensible and too common?

But is Verity too unusual? (361st on the popularity list!) and would it sound weird, Felicity and Verity? Or do they go well together?

I would have Annie as a NN for Annabelle (don't actually like Anna or Belle on their own!) but with Verity, what could it be shortened to? (I always seem to shorten everything!)

Thanks!

I love Verity but it's a bit too matchy with Felicity for my liking.
I think Annabelle is overused, especially Belle but I LOVE Annie so why not just go with that?

I would go with Annabelle :)

We had Verity on our list of girls names until someone told me it sounded like Ferrity - was ruined for me after that. Every time I said it I heard 'Ferrity' instead of 'Verity'

I prefer Annabelle but spelt Annabel
