Meaning and background
The story behind Mirabel
Mirabel is recorded as a variant of Mirabelle. That exact relationship supports the spelling without needing to invent a different meaning for its shorter ending. The single final l gives it a more compact appearance on a tag, although an owner should still choose the intended spoken form. A particular character or person may be the personal inspiration, but the reference used here establishes only the name relationship. Compare both spellings before committing, especially if consistency across records matters to you.
