Looking through my baby name book and I found Arabel or Arabella. I haven't tried it on DH yet, but I think I like it. WDYT?

Arabel Marie Fata
Arabella Marie Fata

Thanks.

I LOVE Arabella, I've been thinking about this name a lot lately, but my dh would never go for it. Plus, Arielle, Arianna, Arie, and Arvella are all fam names, and I like to be different.

I like it, but don't like the "a" at the end and prefer Arabelle over Arabel.

I think I like them. Not sure which one I like better. The "bella"-ending names are so overused right now that I might go w/ Arabel. I have grown worn of the name Isabella so I think you're wise to use one of these you've come across.
