Meaning & origin
Annebelle is a modern compound name that blends the grace of Anne with the beauty of Belle. First recorded in 1915, it remained rare for decades before climbing to its peak in 2013. Since 2014, however, its popularity has been falling. The name has never reached the top 1000 rankings nationally, and it has no recorded top states, suggesting scattered usage across the country. As a modern coinage, Annebelle reflects the creative naming trends of the 21st century, appealing to parents who favor the soft, feminine sound of names like Annabelle and Isabelle.
Annebelle is a modern compound name formed by blending Anne, the English form of the Hebrew Hannah meaning 'grace', with Belle, the French word for 'beautiful'. This combination style became fashionable in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, particularly in the United States. The name first appeared in records in 1915 but saw its peak usage in the 2010s.
