[Opinions] Re: Annabel?
in reply to a message by Cristi-es
I wish I knew! It's been puzzling me all my life.
I like Isabel a lot (prefer Isobel, but hey) and guiltily enjoy Rosabel and Christabel (but not Clarabel). So, why do I dither about Annabel when I'm an Anne fan of note? I do like it; I've never met one, so no associations to muddy the water; but I'd never, ever use it. Not if I had as many daughters as a herring. And Amabel is no better.
Mabel Anne might be nice, though!
