Poll: WDYT?

Thought on Mabel?
Really digging on it, but curious on opinions.

  • Total home run/love it/will be an appropriate name at all ages
  • Ehhh, it’s ok
  • No way, too old lady

And I live in the southern US, if that makes any difference on votes

I’m from the [name_u]Southern[/name_u] US originally. I think it’s a winner! The nn Mae/May is on trend (in a good way) and the vintage feel is very southern to me almost like a reprisal of a grandmother’s name. People are using [name_f]Hattie[/name_f] and [name_f]Etta[/name_f] and [name_u]Hazel[/name_u] - [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] totally fits in with those ladies to me!

[name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] and [name_f]Mabel[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] come to mind for combos!

I keep thinking about the daughter from the show mad about you, and how they got it from an acronym they made, Mothers Always Bring Extra [name_u]Love[/name_u]. I like it:)

I’ve grown to love the name [name_f]Mabel[/name_f], it’s just so sweetly old fashioned without feeling overly dusty, and it’s such a nicely feminine name without being too frilly. If you’re into nicknames, it’s the perfect way to get to [name_f]Mae[/name_f]. I also love the meaning of [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]! It’s an amazing name all around

I like those names too, apparently that’s my style :wink:.
We had a Mabel that was sort of a surrogate grandmother to my husband and that’s part of why it came up! And also, both my dad and brother’s names start with Ma-. My brother’s daughter is named after me, so it sort of feels like 2 birds with 1 stone!

I remember that too! And an added meaning!!

totally works for all ages, but i just can’t get over the fact that it sounds so much like ‘table’
