Re: Bella
in reply to a message by ghostwriter
1) Do you think it's unforgivably arrogant to change your own name to Bella?
Definitely not. Bella does mean beautiful, but I don't think it's arrogant because it's a common name and the meaning isn't really really obvious. Not like actually calling yourself "beautiful" in English!
2) If I like Isabella nn Bella, what other names might make the cut?
Isabella is so common, so you could choose a more interesting name which can also use the nickname Bella, such as Arabella or Annabel
