Yeah I really like the spelling Annabelle, but I think you are right, with the full spelling of Belle it is really putting it out there. I do like the name Belle, but I prefer not to name my child it if you know what I mean.

I LOVE Annie and it is part of my reason for choosing the name Annabelle as I think Annie is a bit incomplete and I do not DH would go for just Annie either where as Annabelle is really growing on him .
