I first heard of this name when reading the St Clare’s books by Enid Blyton. There was a character called Mirabel. It struck me as an absolutely beautiful name, and I remember being surprised that it wasn’t more common, considering its lovely meaning and its similarity to the more popular Isabel.

This name is definitely much more beautiful than Miracle! It's a shame it isn't used more often.

This is my name and honestly I'm not a big fan of it. I understand that it's a super pretty and unique name, but also very confusing. Most of my teachers called me Mirabella or Maribel, and it was very exhausting correcting them. By my 3rd year of junior high I had decided to go by Mira, and that's been my name ever since. Mirabelle is a very pretty name, but very long and hard for people to decipher.

This is so fun, I prefer it to Isabelle or Anabelle. Mirabelle is like a dreamy secret field of flowers at twilight.

Spelling variation: Mirabel Madrigal is the main protagonist of Disney's Encanto. She was born in the late 19th century, fitting the time period for the name's revival. Mirabel is a rare name in Latin America, and the creators of the film were criticized for not naming her Maribel, a much more common name. They chose the name Mirabel for its dual meaning. Her grandmother calls her by her name's meaning, and throughout the film, she's called Mira for short. Mira means "look" in Spanish, and seeing things no one else wishes to see is a recurring theme in the movie. The name Mirabel was very intentionally chosen.
Besides, they already have an Isabela, so there's no sense naming another kid Maria-Isabel.

I have a stepmother named Mirabelle. We get along now but when I was a teenager I called her Mirbubbles for reasons that I feel uncomfortable discussing here. She was nineteen when she married my dad, 37, her teacher. I didn't like her for a long time but now we have come to terms, mostly bonding over my dad's death.
Mirabelle as a name is okay. ^ this happened in 1979.

This name has really grown on me. I really wanted a 'Belle' name for my daughter, and the unusual usage of this name (an underused gem) has made me love it. Plus, it has beautiful meanings, Latin and French, it's a small sweet plum, and has cute nicknames. I was thinking that you could also have Mia, and Millie at a stretch, but my favourite is Bella.
My husband likes it, but thinks it sounds like 'marble', though he keeps pronouncing it 'Marable', so no wonder! He just has to learn to say 'Mirra-bell'. I also really like the novel Shopgirl by Steve Martin, and I resonated with the character Mirabelle. The only other Belle name that I like this much is Annabelle, but that horror movie possessed doll has kind of tainted that one! Mirabelle is like a Disney fairy name. It's so pretty and elegant, and it is my favourite name for my daughter. I have just got to get husband to love it too!

Meribel is a place in the French alps. Mirabel is a place in Quebec, Canada. Mirabelle is a delicate yellow French plum, which I think is fine, since Victoria is also a type of plum and it's never bothered me.

It occurred to me recently how it kind of sounds like mirror ball. The nickname mirror, unless you purposefully pronounce it Meera, could lead to some teasing, and belle of the ball, don't break the mirror, or Mira who breaks balls... I'm just trying to see possible bullying ammo here and let's be right, most kids don't need ammo. But it is a pretty plum name so regardless of it sounding like a mirrorball, I still like this name.

This is a really lovely name; it's a shame, in my opinion, that this name isn't used more often, and is more or less extinct. This name needs some sort of celebrity to name their child this to get it back in circulation, either that or a prominent member of a European royal family, or something. I don't think I'd use it personally, as a first name, at least, perhaps as a middle name, though, because I think it's just a bit too overly flouncy and feminine. But I can see no reason why this name shouldn't be as popular as Isobel, or some of the other -bel/-belle names, and frankly it would be a refreshing change. :)

I don't like names like Annabella, Mirabella, or Isabella. Because they all end in A. Like Anna and Bella. It's just too many A's. But I love Mirabelle! So much and it's beautiful.

Mirabelle could be a play on the name Maribelle, the "play" being it becoming more similar to "mirabelis." A parellel would be the relationship of Arabella to Annabel (see Arabella entry.)
Could also be a combination of the names MIRiam and isABEL. (Marie/Maria/Mary stem from the name Miriam.)

Mirabelle (or its variants) is, to me, a very delicate, pretty name. It brings to mind a Snow White beauty.

I'm kind of indifferent to the name, but it's always radiated a sense of sweetness for me. I have a character called Mirabelle Wood, and she's generally sweet and friendly, along with being overbearingly smart (c'mon, you know those people ;D).

The original spelling of this name is actually Mirabel. It has been in English-speaking use since medieval times. It was originally a man's name. Even though it is derived from the Latin word for wonderful ("mirabilis"), it is often associated with the French "bel/belle" (beautiful).

Marvel as a given name just sounds too masculine to me because it looks similar to Marvin and Marcel, two traditional male names.
