Cristabel is so much nicer and more lyrical than Christine and other related names.

This is my name and I love it.
Better than any other form and Christa is a good nickname (or Bista, in my case)

Personally don't really like the name Christabel, but I do like it when it is spelt with a K at the beginning and Bella at the end, which altogether spells out Kristabella. I think this variant both sounds and looks pretty.

Absolutely love this name! Love the way it rolls around your tongue, how it sounds, the meaning behind it, too. Beautiful! I would definitely name my first daughter this, or maybe Christabella. :)

Lovely poem, lovely meaning, beautiful name.

It can also be a combination of Christina and Isabel.

Hmm, I really like this name but it kind of sounds like Cristobal when you say it out loud.

This is pretty much my favorite girls' name. It's so delicate and princessy. I guess the girl could be called Chris if she's a tomboy. I go by Christie so the girl would probably be called Kit to avoid confusion with myself. Kit is the best nickname for Christabel.
