I still hesitate between Gabrielle or Galilee Elizabeth...
I am french and christian. Gabriel was the name of my grandfather so I could name her after him :) Galilee is just plain beautiful and sweet but I am not sure. I do not like nicknames so that is the reason why I still hesitate to pick Gabrielle (because of Gabbie). Plus I do not really like Gabrielle with the middle name Elizabeth (which is my husband's grandmother's name).
Any suggestions ?

I like Gabrielle much better. Honestly, I'm not really crazy about Galilee. Plus, Gabrielle has family meaning.

Unless you pick a one-syllable name, you're stuck with nicknames. It's inevitable. Galilee will result in people calling her "Gal" or "Lee." I guarantee it. If you don't want nicknames and don't like Gabrielle with Elizabeth, but want to keep the middle name, it sounds like you need to go back to the drawing board.

Gabrielle is an actual person name. Galilee is not. Isn't it a Biblical country? Gabby is a good nick name.

I personally like the name Gabrielle better - I think either way the child would be nicknamed. If you don't like the nickname Gabbie my uncle and Aunt nicknamed my cousin Ella (for Gabriella)
Just a suggestion.

I really like Gabrielle Elizabeth - plus it combines both of your heritages. Best of luck!

I like Gabrielle better but its probably cause Im not sure of the pronunciation of the other one and if it was me I wouldnt want to name my baby something that people would always be mispronouncing

I think they are both beautiful! I wanted gabrielle also, but my husband didn't want anyone to call her Gabby, as you think will happen also. Bot both are really nice names!

I like both of them, both of them are so beautiful. But I am kind of leaning towards Gabrielle
