I have had [name]Annabelle[/name] on my list for quite a while now but I have really started to fall for [name]Annalie[/name] recently. I absolutely love the meaning of [name]Annalie[/name] (prn like [name]Anna[/name]-lee) “the [name]Lord[/name] has favored me” but I love the [name]Annabelle[/name] connection to [name]Annabelle[/name]'s Wish, the [name]Christmas[/name] movie that I have a very special connection too. So which do you prefer and why?
[name]Annabelle[/name]. [name]Annalie[/name] just ends up sounding like ‘analy’ unfortunately.
I love [name]Annabel[/name] (this sp. also). agree with above poster about [name]Annalie[/name]. how about [name]Anneliese[/name]/[name]Annelise[/name] spelled either of these ways. it is the spelling of [name]Annalie[/name] that just doesn’t look or sound very good to me…
good luck!!
[name]Annabel[/name] has been a favorite of mine forever! It sounds a lot more timeless than [name]Annalie[/name] (espeically the [name]Annabelle[/name] spelling). Plus, [name]Annalie[/name] sounds way too trendy for my liking.
My vote is obviously to stick with [name]Annabelle[/name]!
I vote for [name]Annalie[/name]. I’ve grown weary of -belle/-bel names (with a couple of exceptions), which is unfortunate because they’re beautiful. However, names ending in -lie/-lee appeal to me because they seem homey and down-to-earth. When I see a name like [name]Rosalie[/name], [name]Annalie[/name], or [name]Coralie[/name], I see a girl with braids, freckles, and a checkered gingham dress with a rosy disposition.
[name]Annalie[/name] is fresher. I would pronounce it [name]AH[/name]-nuh-lee.
[name]Annabelle[/name] and variants feel tired at this point. I know and have heard of so many…
I much prefer [name]Annabelle[/name]. I like the suggestion of [name]Anneliese[/name]. What about [name]Arabella[/name], [name]Aline[/name] or [name]Mirabelle[/name]? [name]Do[/name] you like double-barrel names? [name]Anne[/name]-[name]Sophie[/name], [name]Anne[/name]-[name]Marie[/name], [name]Anne[/name]-[name]Catherine[/name]…
I much prefer [name]Annalie[/name]. To me it is is fresher and more spunky, less pretentious. I am just not a fan of belle names. I don’t get the analy reference at all, and no one I mention it to in real life does either. It’s no closer than [name]Annalise[/name] is to me. [name]Love[/name] [name]Annalie[/name]!
Definitely [name]Annalie[/name]. I love the “lie” ending in girl’s names like [name]Rosalie[/name], [name]Ottilie[/name], & Doralie. It makes the name sound less trendy and more interesting.
