Eewww. Too contrived and insubstantial frill.

I want to like it, but I can’t. It makes me think of “wallaby”.

I don’t think it’s very pretty in one word. I do like Willa and Belle so part of me is definitely not completely repulsed.

Willa Belle Lastname works fine, IMO. But she’s have to go by either Willa OR Belle. Not both.

Willabelle sounds a little like a place name in Australia or some weird female version of Willoughby or something like that. As a given name, I’m not a fan.

I'd definitely like it for a character. I wouldn't use it IRL but I'd be happy to see one. It's very singsongy.

Noooo. So cutesy and gross

It's too much like willable.

It sounds very ridiculous, like Clarabel Cow but worse... Willabelle Wallaby, or something.

I don’t like it, at all. I don’t like Willa, I think it’s a super ugly old lady name... and adding belle to it makes it worse.
I can picture Willabelle as a pipe smokin’, rifle-gun totin’ woman from the Appalachian mountains who hasn’t had a bath in a month and lives “just back in that thar holler.”

It sounds like a Southern archetype - her father was William and her mother was Belle, hence Willabelle.

It’s endearing, but I prefer Dolly Parton’s sisters name slightly. Willadeane.

It just seems very comical to me, or like the name of a dairy cow.

It sound incredibly hillbilly to me. Did someone attempt to combine Willow and Belle to make this name? If so, the result wasn’t very good.

Perhaps in a very stripped-down, reduced version: Wilabel/no, not even, don't like it either.
Well,let us stick with the usual suspects, like Anabel, Arabel, Isabel, Mirabel & Rosabel.

Well, for my response, please refer to my user name. :D

(Actually, it's in honor of my cat, Willow. Not sure I'd use it for a human.)

I think it's hilariously horrible! Wendy the Good Little Witch's grown-up cousin, perhaps?

Nah.
I love Willa, but Willabelle is too creative and made-up.

um, I'm not sure if I like it either, not really a fan of Willa maybe Willabel, Lilabel, Christabel, Rosabel, Idabel, Clarabel, Rosabel, Maribel, Avabel, Corabel, Emmabel, Carabel, Maybelle

It made me literally giggle when I saw it. So no, I don't care for it.

Will a bell ring?
Sorry, I don't like it. I don't like bell names and I don't especially like Willa.
