I actually quite like it and love the fact that it means lovable. I love all the combos you have listed and would actually use some of the names you have as mn's as sib's names. I love:

---

Mabel Sophia, Ruby Elizabeth, Clara Phoebe and Lucy Violet

---

Mabel Ruby, Jude Silas, Harry Oliver and Leo Barnaby

---

I am not crazy about it. I know an adorable baby Mabel (Mabel Virginia) and I still think it's kind of an ugly name. I and everyone I know pronounce it "MAYB-ul," not "MAY-bell" which I guess is prettier. The Mabel I know has a big brother named Abram John. I like Abram, but Abram & Mabel rhyme too much for my taste since both contain "abe" sounds.

---

What I love about Mabel is that you can justify the nickname "Maeby" as in the character from Arrested Development.

I think Mabel is a very nice name.

---

As for possible siblings...Samuel, Edmund, Everett, Lucy, Eleanor, Alice.

I heart Mabel. Mabel Caroline is my combo of choice, but Mabel Ruby, Mabel Violet and Mabel Sophia are also very nice (Mabel Sophie I think would be just a touch lighter and more Mabel-friendly)

---

I'd pair Mabel with similar old-fashioned and gentle siblings.
