I prefer Annabel. It's not overly frilly. I have considered the name in the past. Middle names I have considered with it were family names. Jane and Marie.
Honestly, I think they all look ok but I voted Annabelle.
I like Annabelle Rose

About me 2007: Started TTC. 2008: OB prescribed clomid, went to RE and was Dx with PCOS. 2009: IUI #1 w/follitsim and trigger = BFP. B/G Twins born at 33 weeks. 2012: TTC #3, Round 2 of Letrozole w/TI = BFP, missed m/c at 8 1/2 wks. Currently on the bench as we make plans for a new home. Anxious to start TTC #3 within the next year!
I voted Annabelle. I would pronounce it An-na-belle. For Anabelle I'd pronounce it Ah-na-belle (like Ana, Anastasia etc). Two ns denote the An-na sound.
Anabelle-I considered this name before. I absolutely love it. Classic, pretty, just lovely...We decided against it because we didn't want it to be shortened to Anna...

MN: Something one syllable: Claire, Jane, Jean, Joan, June, Joy, Joyce, Kate, Lynn, Paige
I'd stay away from: Mae, Sue and Faye to avoid sound too country.
I just posted this same question last week :-)
We decided on Annabel because it's more traditional and I think it goes better with DS Oliver.
I like Annabel Claire or Annabel Grace.
I voted for Annabel because of the literary connection, but if you like a "fancier" look I would choose Annabelle.
Annabel Jade
Annabel Elise
Annabel Margaret
Annabel Kate
