Annebel is in Origin.

Annebel is a contemporary spelling of Annabel/Annabelle, a name that traces back to medieval Amabel, from Latin amabilis “lovable, worthy of love.” Over time it was reshaped under the influence of Anna (from Hebrew Channah, “grace”) and French belle “beautiful,” so the name carries layered senses of lovable, graceful beauty. The form Annabel took firm root in Scotland in the Middle Ages and enjoyed later English-speaking revival in the 19th century, helped by romantic literature - most famously Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “Annabel Lee.”

Variants include Annabel and Annabelle (English), Anabel (Spanish/Portuguese), Annabell (German/Scandinavian), and the longer Annabella. Diminutives and nicknames range from Anna and Annie to Belle, Bella, and Bel. Annebel itself appears chiefly in Dutch and English usage as a streamlined, modern choice while preserving the traditional meaning.
