Help[Opinions] Re: Annabelle
in reply to a message by guasguendi
Yes, I very much prefer Annabel. Annabel is charming and natural, I think of beautiful landscapes, the sea, clean sheets, white candles. Annabelle is sugary and over the top, I think of a pig in a tutu and pink cupcakes with sprinkles. Too much. Also the creepy doll is named Annabelle.
Anabelle just looks misspelled to me. Ana is used in cultures where double consonants are not used so it makes no sense with the belle-part. The Spanish form would be Anabel. I personally dislike all forms that use only one N. If I had to choose between Annabelle and Anabelle I'd pick Annabelle.
I wouldn't use a nickname for Annabel.
Not sure about middle names. None of my favorites go with it. Annabel Catherine sounds nice though. Lots of my favorites include the letter L or even the EL combination so they are too much.
Out of your nicknames: Annie or Belle. It doesn't make sense to me to use Ana, Ann, Anna or Anne as nicknames as they are full names and you might as well just put them on the birth certificate. Bella doesn't make much sense, it would work better for Annabella.
I could picture a 1920s girl for Annabel, not so much for Annabelle. Annabelle is just too much, too sweet, too much sugar.
