Re: Frances vs Mabel
in reply to a message by RDNZL
Frances! I love Frances. I'd prefer to call her Frankie or Francie but I'd still use it without a nickname, given the choice.Mabel is okay, it seems a kind of... affected? I imagine the parents of a young Mabel dressing her in super impractical Pinterest outfits to show off how stylish they are. I like the Maybelle spelling better, it's a little syrup-y sweet but it's more charming.http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/87410

Frankie is a cute nn for a girl although it's the name of my aunts female dog. Francie is also cute but I prefer Francine over Frances to use the nn's Frankie or Francie or Frannie.
