I voted Francesca because it sounds exotic. Penelope reminds me of KK, so it ruins it for me. I like miabella, but I think it's too close to Annabelle.
I love Penelope but I think it'd be a bit much to have them both have very long names, so I voted Eva. I think Annabella and Eva sounds really sweet Vivian would be my second choice.

@jcieply so jealous that you have names picked out! I haven't even given them a though for LO#2 and I am anticipating quite the battle with DH (we have opposite opinions on names and took a long time to pick out DD's name)

We've had a hard time dh doesn't LOVE any of them. I had Annabelle's name picked for years I think this one will still take a while
I voted Penelope. I think Pennie is cute but I would go with Poppy or Pip/Pippa for the nn.
I am very excited to see Francesca on your list! That is our girl middle name. I love the full name but not the nickname options so that is why it is in the mn spot for us.
Well, DD1 is Vivienne nn Vivi, DD3 is Elizabeth nn Betsy, so I love both of those Penelope nn Penny was on my list as was Francine, seems like we have similar naming interest. ETA: I voted for Vivian, I think it pairs best with Annabelle.

Very similar taste! I had Francine on the list at one point too!
I voted for Vivian but really I like all of them. The only one I would not pick is Miabella because I think it's to similar to your DDs name since the both have "bell" in them.
Love Penelope, but I gotta be honest--the "ie" on the end of Penny bugs me. I love the nickname Penny but Pennie seems like it's trying too hard.
Least favorite is Miabelle. It sounds like a letter got missed in Mirabelle.
And count me as someone who doesn't like picking a name for the nickname--I'd be sure you're happy with the main name, because when the kid is 13 she's going to decide to call herself something else, guaranteed, lol.
Yes, I'm that person who's honest but an asshat on these polls.
I voted for Penelope. But I would not pick a name based off the NN I wanted to use. IMHO, if you are going to do that you may as well just name the child the NN.
I am huge on not picking a nn for a name. My daughter is 15 months and I've never called her anything but Annabelle and I hate when people say what do you call her? I put the nicknames up just because I do like the sound of them too and eventually someone will shorten it in someway. Def deciding based on the full name though
Thanks for everyone's input! I'll let you know what we decide. The middle name has to be Michael because of a family tradition and it's our last. I like how Vivian Michael sounds but just love Penelope!
Re: Help us decide on a baby girl name
My DD is a Mirabelle. ;;)
I also really liked Charlotte, but also using Nn Charlie.
