Baby girl name spelling Which one?

[andpeggy1]

Abbey, Abby or Abbie

Which one is better?
Btw this will be their full name rather than a nickname for Abigail

I'd say Abbie. Or Abi. You will always have to spell the name out and I expect you'll get various versions on birthday cards etc.

Not 1.

1 is already a word: it's where monks or nuns live and worship.

Abbie for me too

I think Abby is most traditional and I like it best. Abi is another one that makes sense.

Abby

definitely not Abbey. Abi looks like a nickname

I know an Abi.
I think although PP is right that Abbey is already a word it doesn't t seem to be used for a name, Abby is more so. And came up correctly as I was typing (as did abi) so would appear to be legit words. Abbie isn't and wants to autocorrect to Annie

Abigail or Abi

Abbey is a cathedral (not technically a cathedral but you get my drift).

Abbie for me, although everyone will assume it’s short for Abigail.

Not Abbey, as that's a word as in Westminster Abbey.

I'd go for Abbie or Abi. Short for Abigail.

Abigail, pick a nickname but use the proper name on the BC

Other options include:
Abelone
Abena
Abene
Abeni
Abha
Abia
Abiah
Abijah
Abilene
Abla
Abril

I’d call her Abigail personally, it’s an elegant name and she might like the option. But Abbie

I'm usually one for using full names rather than ie short-forms, but Abbie/Abby has stood the test of time and feels fine to use as a given name (much like Ellie, Katie, Evie etc). When you consider some of the cutesy things people call their kids these days, Abbie is perfectly acceptable! (And personally I've never liked Abigail, the Gail part makes it feel quite ugly to me).

Abbie or Abby is fine, whichever you prefer. Abbey is a big no, for reasons others have stated above. Abi I would assume is definitely short for Abigail. It feels unfinished as a given name.

Thought you were going to call her Which for a moment.

Abbie or Abi, but personally I’d give her Abigail so she has the option. Abbey will just make you look stupid.

Abbie is very sweet, definitely not Abbey, as it's a building!

But what's wrong with Abigail as the full name? Great name.

Please think about Abigail. Heard too many Scabby Abby’s over the years.

I prefer Abbie.

Not Abbey.

I'd go with Abigail (and Abi) to give her options, but if you're adamant you don't want to then Abby.

Abi doesn't feel like a proper name
you can't land her with Abbey

Abbie is sweet and smart.

Abbie

Give her the long form name and just use the short version from the get go.

I have a 'proper' name on my BC, but was known as the short form from birth. As an adult, I was very glad to have the choice and have used my full name for 25 years now.
My parents, and people I know from my childhood, still use the short version (and it would be very odd to hear them using the long version), but I much prefer the full version and am very glad to have the choice.

I’d go against the grain here and say Abbey. But then my oldest friend is Abbey spelt this way so I’m used to it as a name.

Abby doesn’t look right or nice imo. If not Abbey I’d say Abbie.

Abbie. Abbey makes me think it autocorrected and you didn’t know abbey is a word.

Not Abbey.

Abbie

Would Abi be pronounced "ay-bee", like ABC?

Abbie is the most usable
