A name like Mabel <3

Girl Names
1

I’m looking for a name to match [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. I absolutely love it, head over heels adore! However, OH is only 50/50 on it. We’re not having a girl any time soon so we’re not rushing tofind a girls name. In fact, we’re having a boy in 8 weeks :slight_smile: But I am always working on my name list, so…

Our issue is he is 50/50 on [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. He does like it, but not enough to actually use it. Could I have suggestions for names of similar feels? So maybe I can fall in love with a similar name, and maybe he’ll like a similar one too. It could be other “[name_f]Mae[/name_f]” names, or completely unsimlar sounds. Anything is fine.

Thanks so very much for all input!

[name_f]Mavis[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Amabel[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f], [name_f]Stella[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Doris[/name_f]…?

I have always thought of [name_f]Mabel[/name_f], [name_f]Sybil[/name_f] and [name_f]Edith[/name_f] as a trio. I think the all fit into the category of short, two-syllable, no-nonsense vintage names. :slight_smile:

I personally don’t like [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. I just don’t get the appeal. I would rather see:

[name_f]Mae[/name_f]
[name_f]Corinna[/name_f]
[name_f]Celia[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f]

I like quite a few suggestions, including: [name_f]Mavis[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Amabel[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Hattie[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Edith[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], and [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] are all very lovely! :slight_smile: I know OH wouldn’t like a couple, but hopefully he’ll like SOMETHING. I don’t love any as much as [name_f]Mabel[/name_f], but hopefully something will grow on me :slight_smile:

Some suggestions are:
[name_f]Maeby[/name_f]

Oh! [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is sweet! Hmm, I will add that to the list of names I’ll ask about :slight_smile: <3

I love [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]. The suggestions remind me of [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] in some way but I don’t like any of them as much.
[name_f]Sydel[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Sable[/name_f]
[name_f]Melba[/name_f]
[name_f]Ethel[/name_f]
[name_f]Marigold[/name_f]
Magnolia
Coral
[name_f]Nell[/name_f]

Hmm, I don’t love a lot of them either… though [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] is really pretty :slight_smile: [name_f]Kinda[/name_f] does have a similar sound actually, I wonder what OH would think :slight_smile:

My friend has a [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] and an [name_f]Olive[/name_f] if that helps
