HelpBella
I used to love Bella and now am starting to like it again. Back then I liked it as a nickname for Isabella but Isabella seems boring and empty to me now. Nowadays I like it for either Annabella or Annabel.
I prefer Annabel but Annabella would lead more directly to the nn Bella, in my opinion. So should I rather use Annabel which I like or Annabella which I don't like as much as Annabel but where Bella would make more sense?
Or should I use Bella on its own? The problem I have is that it is the Italian word for beautiful. I think it might put more pressure on a child than Annabella would (which she could use or shorten to Anna or whatever in case she didn't like Bella). I just think it's one of the words where you really hear what it means from the sound alone and which might be a burden for some kids to have.
Also it is way too common which is why I'd prefer Annabel or Annabella so she'd have a less common variant to fall back on. Do you think many of the Isabellas go by Bella?
How many Bellas do you know? Do you know their full name?
