[Opinions] Annabell or Annabel?
Replies
In Latin, (which I speak, and also the language that Annabel comes from) there wouldn't be two l's... Or it would sort of end up sounding like Annabay... Annabell just isn't correct, so therefore, it looks very incorrect to me.. It's funny, after I learned to speak multiple languages, I see names differently.. I can't overlook when it just CANNOT work, because its etymologically incorrect.. Annabell is one of them.. So, all that to say, I prefer Annabel. Furthermore, I prefer Amabel to that.. I think you forgot the most common spelling of Annabelle though... I'd like to add... I hope this was helpful! (Sorry it kinda turned into a mini-rant....)
Annabell looks wrong; partly because, etymologically and historically, it is wrong. Annabel was originally a misreading of Amabel, which in Latin never had or could have a double L.
Annabella is pretty well established, and can easily be considered a merger of Anna and Bella, based on Isabella. It is not to my taste. I find it frilly and over-elaborate.
I would be unlikely to use Annabel, since I've already used Anne as a mn for my daughter. But I would never use Annabell.

Annabel, Annabell looks incomplete.
