Annabelle is a compound name combining Anna (Hebrew Hannah, "grace") with the Latin bella ("beautiful") — giving "gracious beauty." It originated in medieval Scotland as Anabel.
Annabelle has been rising rapidly in the U.S., currently sitting in the top 70. Edgar Allan Poe's 1849 poem Annabel Lee set the literary romantic tone.
Annabelle reduces to nine — the number of bright graceful warmth.
