No I don't think it's trashy or tacky. In fact, I first think of "la belle époque" when I see the name Belle and that's very much not-trashy.

Phoebe Belle is bouncy and cute. I like the "bee-beh" part. Emmeline Belle is very pretty too. Emilia Belle would be very nice.

I rather like pairing Belle the way I do Chloe - with something that needs a bit of warming up or a bit of fluff. Something where a little sweetness is an enhancement and not overwhleming. So something like:

Agnes Belle
Georgina Belle
Enid Belle
Edie Belle
Winifred Belle
Susan Belle
Dorothy Belle
Ruth Belle
Norma Belle
Esther Belle
Gwendolen Belle (Gwendolen is a very strong name for me)
Harriet Belle

But I understand completely if others don't see the appeal of such names.
