Annabelle (given name)
Annabelle is a feminine given name of English origin, a combination of the Latin name Anna, which comes from the Hebrew word for grace, and the French word belle, meaning beauty.[1] Its creation was likely influenced by the name Amabel, a variant of Mabel. Additionally, within the Hispanophone, Annabelle, spelled Anabel, may serve as either a Spanish form of the name or as a contracted form of Ana Isabel and simply put, it means "Beauty of Grace" since 'Anna' means grace in Hebrew language and 'belle or bel or bell' means beauty. So the name Anabel /Annabel /Anabelle /Annabelle means Beauty of Grace.
