Emily or Annabelle to go with Charlotte?

[tyros2]

I’m struggling between Emily and Annabelle for Charlotte’s sister’s name...

I think Charlotte is elegant, classy, classic and timeless, with beautiful and sweet pronunciation. I decided to use this name without any hesitation at that time...

Which pair is the most matching to Charlotte, matching maybe in terms of whether they both share similar feelings (like elegant, classy, classic and timeless), how they sound together, etc., I don’t know...

And as well as looking at the names individually (not in a pair with Charlotte), Emily vs. Annabelle, which one would be more preferable?

Any thoughts and suggestions would be highly appreciated! Thanks all!

How about Emma? I'm not keen on Charlotte and Emily together as Bronte sisters.

Did you make a decision @tyros2

I love Emily ❤️

I very much appreciate all comments. It's really hard to choose, especially some opinions are quite opposite...
I feel I'm leaning toward Annabelle! But still a little bit unsure about my feeling...

I’d spell it Annabel personally.

Both are very nice.
Does your surname look ok with the initial 'A'. Some names look daft if they are a noun too.

Annabel is the much nicer spelling imo. Annabelle is French and has the emphasis on the second syllable, Belle.

But Emily goes best with Charlotte

Annabelle I have a daughter named that but spelt Annabel.

Need more opinions please! Many thanks!

I think Emily is just beautiful @tyros2

I’d go with Emily. Annabelle / Annabel sounds funny in my south coast accent - sort of Anna-bewl. I do prefer Annabel - Annabelle is a horror movie about a spooky doll.

Emily 100%

Annabel. This spelling.

[ZigAZigAhh]

Annabelle - I have an Annabelle Charlotte and I love her name (though she will no doubt hate me when she is old enough to start having to fill out forms )! I prefer the longer spelling as I’m a bit of a symmetry freak, but Annabel is fine too.

Annabelle - this spelling as like a pp said Annabel looks unfinished. My Annabelle is nn Annie

Annabel is the English/Scottish spelling and it's pronounced ANNAbel.

Annabelle is the French spelling where it's pronounced annaBELLE. The emphasis is on the Belle.

I much prefer Annabel. It looks classy.

But Emily goes better with Charlotte.
