[Opinions] Gabrielle or Isabelle?

I can't decide which one I like better so I thought I would get oppinions from you. Which one do you think is prettier or sounds better? Why do like it best? And what middle names would you choose to go with them? Thanks!

If it was a question of aesthetics, I'd say I prefer Isabelle to Gabrielle. If you plan to use either of these on a real daughter, I suggest Gabrielle - Isabelle is popular beyond belief.

I like Gabriella better than Gabrielle, but I ADORE Isabelle, even though I would never use it IRL. I was almost named Gabriella, and one of my best friends is named Gabriella, so you could say I'm a bit biased :-P Gabrielle seems bitter to me, vs. Gabriella...and I love Isabelle b/c it's such a pretty , frilly name, but to me it has substance, rather than Bailey/Hailey/Kailey/Jailey (haha, "Jailey" looks funny...sorry, I'll get back on track) etc. It is enormously popular, though, which is one of the reasons why I'd refrain from using it IRL.

mns...

Gabrielle Kaye/Kate
Gabrielle Elisabeth
Gabrielle Jane
Gabrielle Caitlin
Gabrielle Shana
Gabrielle Fleur
Gabrielle Mame
Gabrielle Sora

Isabelle Michaela
Isabelle Riley
Isabelle Dana
Isabelle Maureen
Isabelle Mae/May
Isabelle Nona
Isabelle Maria
Isabelle Tara/Terra

Hope this helps!

I agree....

...I don't like the nn Gaby so much b/c its so popular. I like it on my friends but I wouldn't use it IRL. I would use Bella as a nn for either one of these instead. I don't know why I like that nn; its just pretty to me.

I dont like Isabelle all i think when i see the name is Is a bell and i dont like the name Izzy, If you want to use Bella as a nn why not make it her full name, its much prettier.
I like Gabriella better than Isabelle but what about Bria as ann too?
