Ivy or Annabel?

[Horsesandatoddler]

DD due in a couple of weeks and we can't decide!
Ivy and Annabel seem to be top 2 of our short list which also included Isobel, Poppy and Emily. DH isn't keen on Annabel being shortened to Annie but likes the full name.
Thoughts?!

Congratulations! 👶
You picked the right name, and thanks for the update. Best wishes to you and Annabel.

I'd change my name if I were called Ivy. As pp said, it sounds very dowdy.

Ivy. Annabel always strikes me as a great name for a little girl but not so strong for a teenager/adult. That being said, it could be shortened to Anna or Annie, which are lovely!

Congratulations! Annabel’s a lovely name.
