Choosing between three baby girl names

[Purpletopaz42]

Hi, I'm pregnant with a baby girl and my husband and I have narrowed it down to three names but we can't decide which one to pick, as we like them all in different ways so I thought I'd ask for opinions.

The names are: Melody, Keira and Annabella.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, thank you.

I like Annabella the most out of those three.

I absolutely love Melody.

Melody

Keira!

Melody is not to my taste. Maybe a shade 90s but nothing wrong with that.

Annabella is lovey, my DD has a different xxabella name. I’d not do it again, the teasing potential is massive. Snotabella, Pissabella, loads of ‘em. Nothing particularly dreadful but I really didn’t see it coming.

Melody and Keira are a little dated to me. They are lovely sounding names though so I see why people like them.
I love Annabel, not so much Annabella - I think the 2 'a' s is too much.
Love Anna.

Melody.

I love Keira, but would spell it Ciara (unless it’s a different name)?

I don’t like Annabella, but like Annabel or Isabella

Melody by a long way! Not too popular and it’s pretty.
Annabella - private school try hard.
Keira - I can imagine that name being screeched down the supermarket aisle as the child causes havoc!

I love Keira and would definitely have it on my top ten list but spell is Ciara but I'm west of Scotland where Irish names and their spelling are more common.

Keira! But does depend a bit on your surname. I usually love xxxxa names but Annabella, while a pretty name, just seems to have too many a's for my liking, prefer Annabelle. No strong feelings in Melody, I wouldn't pick it for my DD but that's not a reason not to choose it.

Annabella - so fussy - would become Bella or Belle without a doubt

Kiara - feels very 2000s - also many different spellings - Kira, Kiara, Ciara - also a lot of them about.

I like Melody though!

I've already spelled Keira wrong - what was I saying?!

I wouldn't have seen it coming either, I think that's just mean kids rather than the name itself?

(Sorry @Hidingawaytoday - I meant to quote myself)

When you're down to 2 or 3 wait until baby is here to decide. One might just jump out as hers when you see her.

Keira! Although this is not the most common spelling I have seen. The others are so much longer you may never use the actual names, don't you think?

Melody is beautiful and very unusual!!

Out of your list I prefer Keira but I would spell it Kira.

Melody - too close to Malady.
Keira - not keen. the Kira suggestion is better
Annabella - far too fussy, Annabel is much nicer

I'd narrow it down to Kira or Annabel
How does Kira Annabel go with your surname?

Like Keira but prefer Cara.

Not keen on Melody - do like Elodie though.

Annabella too much for me, but Annabel, Anna, Annie all nice.

I knew a Melody at work.
Literally on every work phone call she had to explain and correct the listener that she wasn’t Melonie.

Annabella would be my choice, shortened to Bella.

Annabella far too cutesy and prim IMO.

Like Melody and Kiera though.

Melody

They’re all pretty. For me I like Keira the best. I think Annabel is nicer than Annabella.

Keira

Melody
