What do you think of the name Gabriella?

05/06 · April 2009

Dh and I found out we are having a girl and we've picked out several names. However, the one that we like the most is Gabriella? What do you think of this name? Her middle name would be Elise.

So Gabriella Elise, yay or nay?

TIA

It is pretty. I know a Gabrielle, NN Gaby

I like it a lot! And I like the nn options - both Gabby and Ella are cute.

I'm not sure Gabriella Elise flows the greatest, but you won't say it together very often, so if you love Elise, I say go for it!

I'm not an enormous fan of two vowels back to back, but it actually sounds quite pretty.

Gabrielle is on my hubby's short list of favorite names!

I prefer Gabrielle to Gabriella, but I also like Isabel better than Isabella.

Gabriella Elise seems a bit hard to say -- the final A on Gabriella and the initial E on Elise sort of trip you up. I love Elise, though! Very pretty.

I love it, it reminds me of High School Musical a little bit haha! It's a great name, I went to grade school with a Gabrielle, and High School with a Gabriellen, and they both loved their names. GL!

I think Gabriella Elise is a beautiful combo. I love the name, although DH isn't a fan... in addition to the NNs of Gaby and Ella which were mentioned, I also like Brie.

Good choice!
