I think Bella is a bit too common and therefore boring to me. Therefore I definitely wouldn't use it as a name on it's own.

I think Annabel is a good choice. Bella is still a logical nickname and you prefer it. I think Annabel is nicer than Annabella (just less frilly) - and they're both better than Isabella. I don't know any Bellas but I think a lot of Isabellas go by Bella.
