I tend to like "bel/bell/belle" names. Mehetabel has been growing on me, but I'm not sure how usable it is. I would most likely use it as a mn if I did use it. WDYTO Mehetabel? Is it usable? Fn or mn?

I want to read it METH-EAT-able. :/
The meaning is gorgeous though.

I actually love Mehetabel, it's on my list of favorites for a long time, in fact it's been on my PNL since the first day I started! I think it's usable, but it is a bit much. I would love it as a first or middle. As a first, you could always call her Bell or Hitty, or even Mia or Etta.

I think it's a bit strange. I would use it as a MN.

Mehetabel is one of those names that has something just inherently ridiculous about it. Like Huckleberry. I don't think it's usable, certainly not as a first name, but I don't even think it's usable as a middle name. A woman whose middle name is Mehetabel would be one of those people who are embarrassed by their middle name and won't ever divulge it.

I don't see how it is any worse than Christobel or Claribel

I don't think it is usable as a fn and I think it sounds kind of pretentious and silly too but I don't think it is unusable as a mn

agree it's more a GP than usable
