      "pledged to God"

    • Description:

      Isabelle is the French variation of Isabel, which emerged in the Middle ages as an Occitan form of Elizabeth. Medieval queens Isabella of Angoulême and Isabella of France helped popularize the name in the United Kingdom. Isobel is the Scottish version, Isabella the Italian, and Izabel is used in Brazil.
  4. Annabelle

    • Origin:

      Combination of Anna and Belle or French form of Amabel

    • Meaning:

      "loving"

    • Description:

      This is a charming name that rose steeply along with other-belle names, such as Isabelle, until the horror film Annabelle and its sequels knocked it out of favor. Made famous by the Edgar Allen Poe poem Annabel Lee. Annabelle is saucy and stylish, a tad upscale, has a sense of humor, is melodious and lively, but is unfortunately off its peak.
  5. Annabel

    • Origin:

      Scottish variation of Amabel

    • Meaning:

      "loving"

    • Description:

      Annabel is a spirited name that embodies quirky British gentility. Appearing in Scotland as early as the twelfth century, where it was a royal name, it also recalls the romantic Edgar Allan Poe poem Annabel Lee, written upon the death of his young wife, Virginia.
  6. Bellatrix

    • Origin:

      Latin

    • Meaning:

      "female warrior"

    • Description:

      J.K. Rowling is a modern master of naming who brought a whole constellation of ancient and celestial names to modern parents. Bellatrix, of one of the stars of Orion, combines fashionable names Bella and Beatrix to make a convivial and original name. The down side: the Harry Potter character Bellatrix, played by Helena Bonham Carter, is a character so evil she's called a Death Eater, killing one beloved character and being murdered by another. And the name Bellatrix is so closely associated with that character that it might be challenging to sidestep the association.
  7. Mirabella

    • Origin:

      Italian variation of Mirabelle

    • Meaning:

      "wonderful"

    • Description:

      The short-lived magazine edited by former Vogue chief Grace Mirabella put this beautiful name off-limits for a while, but now it's perfectly fit to join the fashionable Bella pantheon. More distinctive than Isabella.
  8. Maybelle

    • Origin:

      Variation of Mabel; combination of May and Belle; "loveable"

    • Meaning:

      "loveable"

    • Description:

      This spelling variation of Mabel clears up the pronunciation — "may-belle", as opposed to "may-bull". Maybelle is packed with Southern charm, and like sister name Mabel is on the rise, but still on a much smaller scale.
  9. Marbella

    • Origin:

      Spanish place name

    • Meaning:

      "beautiful sea"

    • Description:

      The name of the resort city on Spain's Costa del Sol is pronounced mar-BAY-a, setting it apart from the bella-name competition -- though many English speakers won't realize that. And it probably doesn't matter unless you pointedly want to reference the place via your daughter's name. Marbella, with the Ls pronounced, is a pretty choice given to about 100 baby girls each year.
  10. Dulcibella

    • Origin:

      Latin

    • Meaning:

      "sweet and pretty"

    • Description:

      Dulcibella is an old name that's fallen into disuse but may rise again with the new wave of fashionable names that end in -bel, -belle, and -bella. Behind the Name says that the medieval form of the name was the Dowsabel, which we definitely do not see making a comeback. But Dulcibel or Dulcibelle could work.
  11. Lulabelle

    • Origin:

      English combination of Lula and Belle

    • Meaning:

      "famous beauty"

    • Description:

      Cutesy combination of Lula and Belle. Lula is a short form of names starting with the "Lu" sound, which may derive from Germanic hlud "famous", and Belle is French for "beautiful".
  12. Rosabella

    • Origin:

      Latin

    • Meaning:

    • Description:

      A mashup of two of the most popular baby names today, Rose and Bella, that's still comparatively undiscovered in the US. Just 58 American baby girls were named Rosabella last year. It feels more Italianate and vivacious than Rosalind or Rosamund -- if also less refined.

  14. Clarabella

    • Origin:

    • Meaning:

      "bright + beautiful"

This charming combination creates a name suggesting 'beautiful nobility' or 'noble beauty.' With its vintage sound and melodic quality, Adabelle has the character of names popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Though never widely common, it has experienced small revivals as parents rediscover vintage names. The name offers the possibility of Ada or Belle as natural nicknames. Adabelle conveys elegance and femininity while remaining distinctive, appealing to parents seeking a name with classic charm that isn't overused.

  19. Arbella

    • Description:

      Arbella is a feminine name with noble historical connections, most notably through Lady Arbella Stuart, a potential successor to Queen Elizabeth I of England in the early 17th century. The name likely derives from the Latin 'orabilis,' meaning 'yielding to prayer,' or possibly as a variant of Arabella, which has roots in the Latin 'orabilis' combined with Scottish influence. Arbella carries an elegant, vintage quality with its melodic three-syllable rhythm. While never reaching widespread popularity, the name maintains an aristocratic, sophisticated air that appeals to parents seeking historical richness with uncommon status. Arbella's antique charm and noble associations make it distinctive without being too unusual, offering a graceful alternative to more common vintage revivals.

  20. Amabelle

    • Origin:

      Variation of Amabel

    • Description:

      This unusual Belle name just might have a chance at greater visibility in this era of all names bell-related, from Queen Isabella to the upwardly mobile Belle and Annabelle to -- why not-- Amabelle.
