Help[Opinions] Re: Isabella
in reply to a message by Perrine
It is going down, but is still super popular. I love it anyway, though. I slightly prefer Isobel or Isabelle, but not because Isabella is more popular. They are just slightly more my style. Belle is my favourite nickname, but Izzy is lovely, too. I love Annabel as well, but my personal favourite is Amabel - but I digress...! If you love Isabella, don't worry about the popularity. I refuse to stop loving Emma, Charlotte or James, and they're all super popular.

agree ^^^ (M) & question
I agree. Though scarcity rather than popularity would endear any attribute beyond the common--and this would not only occur through name preferences.
I too love Emma & Charlotte--and popularity would not alter my preference. I do not know of any ladies by the name of James--but I think this would be a welcome change for my perceptions.
Would you know if ladies with the formal name of James frequently use the short names "Jim" or "Jimmy / Jimmie"?

Oh, I switched to talking about popular male names, too. I have heard that James is used for girls, but I personally love it for boys. I do like Jamie for girls, and Jimi works. We did have a girl budgie called Jimi, after Hendrix, although we thought originally that she was a boy. We kept the name, as it suited her, and the ending made it look feminine.
