Re: Mabel
in reply to a message by Evangeline Rose
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.
