Re: Belle
in reply to a message by Lily
I used to like Bella a lot, on its own. And then Twighlight and the Charge of the Isabella Brigade took it over. So it need a serious rest. Belle, on the other hand, still sounds fresh to my ears. It can stand on its own (stock: Belle Ariadne, Belle Myfanwy), but like you I prefer it as a nn. It wouldn't have to be predictable like Isabelle, Christabel, Arabella, Mirabel, Belinda, etc. It could be for something more subtle like Beatrice Eleanor --> B El --> Belle.

Ahhh yeah, I still hate Twilight for ruining two of my favorite names: Bella and Embry. I don't even know anything about the Embry character because I've never read the books, but nameberry told me it's a Twilight name. Belle Ariadne is pretty cool, I also like Belle Adrienne.
