We've narrowed our name list down to two but still can't decide which one to go for! The names are:

Daisy
Annabelle

Really like them both but I know they are very different. Thinking we'll see what she suits when she's born in a couple of weeks!

Just wondered which name people prefer?? Surname is Robinson.

Daisy!!!

maybein2022 · 20/02/2022 19:11

Both nice, but I prefer Annabelle.

Captainj1 · 20/02/2022 19:13

Daisy - lots of syllables otherwise! But both nice

DogsAndGin · 20/02/2022 19:13

Annabelle

JayAlfredPrufrock · 20/02/2022 19:13

Daisy.

Violetmo0n · 20/02/2022 19:14

Daisy

haribolover30 · 20/02/2022 19:17

Like both! But Daisy sounds better with your surname 😀

wishing3 · 20/02/2022 19:20

Daisy!

Sunshinedreaming2022 · 20/02/2022 19:21

I love Daisy however I would pick Annabelle as the first name as I think it just gives the person more options to their name as they grow up. Could be Annabelle, Anna or Belle etc. It’s that whole which name would make a better Prime Minister name. I’d use Daisy as a middle name

StopForAMinute · 20/02/2022 19:31

Annabelle.

fleurpots · 20/02/2022 19:39

I like Annabelle but would spell it Annabel. Annabelle looks too long and frilly and like two names bunched together, Annabel looks like a name on its own.

AdaColeman · 20/02/2022 19:45

Daisy all the way!

Luredbyapomegranate · 20/02/2022 19:47

Daisy is sweet but I’d prefer to be called Annabel as an adult

So Annabel Daisy Robinson ?

Don’t think you need the extra French spelling.

HettytheHoover · 20/02/2022 19:50

Love both but Daisy - there's a million of --bell and -bella ending names at the moment.

AntiHop · 20/02/2022 19:52

How about Margaret but use Daisy as a nickname? Daisy is a bit too cutsey for a proper name.

Shainago · 20/02/2022 20:01

Both pretty names but I prefer Annabel

AdaColeman · 20/02/2022 20:16

Daisy would be a lovely nn for Marguerite, a most beautiful name, and quite unusual.

ISmellBurnings · 20/02/2022 20:36

Annabelle, although prefer Annabel.

Daisy is too twee and cutsey.

ISmellBurnings · 20/02/2022 20:37

Cutesy even.

BlueFlavour · 20/02/2022 20:45

Prefer Annabelle. Know a very chic Annabel.

Annabel Daisy is a lovely name.

sibbys · 20/02/2022 21:52

Daisy Robinson Daffodil

sadpapercourtesan · 20/02/2022 21:54

Annabelle

Fivebeanchilli · 20/02/2022 22:14

Daisy.
I prefer Annabel to Annabelle but prefer Daisy to both.

Emily6457 · 20/02/2022 22:26

Daisy is a beautiful name. Although I’m bias as I have a Daisy. She’s Daisy Mabel, which I think would be quite similar sounding to Daisy Annabelle. Sounds lovely.
I also love the name Belle, which I would definitely use as a nn if I had an Annabelle.
Good luck with your new arrival xx

DramaAlpaca · 20/02/2022 22:33

If you were spelling it Annabel that would be my choice.

Annabelle is way too frilly and fussy for me, so I'll say Daisy even though it's twee.
