Meaning of Marybelle

Marybelle is a beautiful and timeless name for baby girls. It has English origins and is pronounced as mare-ee-bel (/ˈmeri bɛl/). The name Marybelle is a combination of two classic names, Mary and Belle. Mary, derived from the Hebrew name Miriam, means "wished-for child" or "bitter." Belle, on the other hand, comes from French and means "beautiful." The combination of these names gives Marybelle a deep sense of meaning - a cherished and beautiful child.

Although not extremely popular, Marybelle has seen consistent usage in the United States over the years. In recent times, it has been given to anywhere between 5 to 18 newborns per year. It reached its peak popularity in the mid-20th century when it was more commonly chosen for baby girls. However, despite its declining usage in recent years, Marybelle remains an elegant and unique choice for parents looking for a traditional yet distinctive name for their daughter.
