Abby
- A lovely choice. For some reason, I find the soft A sound soothing. All the Abby's I know are great people. I'm not too crazy about Abigail though and Abra/Abriella, etc are just too wierd for me.
- Abby Rose: not so unusual I know, but it flows so well. As I don't think I'll talk my husband into anything too unusual, this will be our baby's name if we have a girl. Abby means: gives joy (which is appropriate!!), and Rose goes so well.
Abby is generally a diminutive of Abigail, though it was also used as a pet form of Arabella in the past.
