[Opinions] Annabel or Amabel ?

I've liked the name Annabel for a long time. What do you think ? Annabelle is okay but I prefer Annabel as in "Annabel Lee" the poem by Edgar Allan Poe. The name Annabel was also used in the novel "Lolita". Which spelling do you prefer and why ? I speak French so I should like Annabelle but I just think Annabel looks better. Do you think it's too girly or a name for a cow (I've met quite a few cows named Mabel and Annabelle).

What do you think of Amabel ? I like it, but I'm worried that people will always think its Annabel. I pronounce it AHM-ma-bel. How do you pronounce it ? Which one do you prefer ? Annabel or Amabel ?

•I thought Amabel was a typo when I first read your subject line! nt · Cressida · 8/24/2008, 8:39 AM

•Amabel is actually the original form. Annabel is a variant nt · Lily8 · 8/24/2008, 8:49 AM

•Definetly Annabel. Amabel just looks like a mispelling... · Lumiereslove · 8/24/2008, 8:05 AM

•Def. Amabel. Annabel is a tiny bit more "snobbish"-sounding... nt · LoQuiero · 8/24/2008, 5:41 AM
