Definitely Mabel. Though audrey is lovely too.

Neither are to my personal taste, but if I had to pick, I think Audrey.

Mabel either makes me think of cows and it's too close to label. Yeah, weird reasons, I know! It does have some nice shortening though, like May or Belle.

Audrey makes me think of Coronation Street! But I think it's a nicer sound than Mabel, and has nice connotations like Audrey Hepburn.

Both great choices but Mabel edges it for me

I love Mabel.

Audrey - it has nicer connotations for me

Mabel. Audrey still makes me think of Corrie.

Mabel

Audrey for me - it was my mums middle name and I went to school with a girl called Audrey who was really lovely. We considered it as a name for one of our daughters, but it really didn't go with our last name.
