Beautiful and a wonderful alternative to Isabel!

I absolutely LOVE it! It's on my Top 5 favorite girls' names. And I prefer your spelling of 'Annabel'.

I like Annabel; however, I strongly prefer Amabel.

It's cute on a three year old, but clumsy and frumpy on an adult.

I love this name. It is much less frilly than Annabelle.

A nice change from Isabel

Which I also think pretty.

I like most Ann- names.

I think it's a lovely name. I must admit though, I can't picture it on a grown up, but then again, I have never met an adult Annabel.

It's beautiful. :)

I love it! I think it's very sweet and has an old charm to it. It's a wonder it's not more popular with Anna and Isabelle being so popular.

I think Annabel is lovely, however I worry that the child would never be called Annabel and would be relegated to Anna, Anne, or Belle. Also, I much prefer the spelling Anabel.

It's pretty, and in Britland it's posh.
I prefer this spelling to the fancier Annabelle.

I'd think: Yippee! At last, a child with parents who are (a) original and (b) have a sense of history. I'd also cheer loudly because it hasn't got that silly -belle ending which spoils it totally.

And Annabel in the Mary Poppins books is one of my favourite fictional babies ...

I do like it, as long as it is that is spelled Annabel. It is quite pretty, but Annabelle isn't as understated.

Nice choice.
