I just realized I’ve probably, most likely…. actually have, been saying her name wrong this whole time.

[Seastar]

I pronounce "Label" as label and "Labelle" as la belle. It just depends on which Animal Crossing game it is.

 

[kayleee]

For continuity's sake I wish her name was spelled Lable to match Sable and Mable

but also I read her name as "LaBelle" even in New Horizons

 

[Dwayne Johnson]

i've always called her label even when she went as labelle because i was dumb lol

i think either works

 

[pup]

i won't be able to stop saying labelle, even after her switch back to label. normally i'm great with changing names (or pronouns lmao) but this is one case where i just don't care to switch it. label always feels weird in my head.

 

[sleepydreepy]

In NH it was "Labelle" and I would say it as "lay-bell" (with the emphasis on bell) but now that its just "Label," I pronounce it the same as a "water bottle label" for example.

I also call her Label now and not her old name because it rhymes with Mabel and Sable, and I always connected it with labels on clothing so idk, it made sense in my head even if its not a real name haha. Its really interesting to me that people pronounce her old name "La-Belle." I never thought of it like that!

 

[Hoshi]

Used to just mix it up in my head but it's mostly Label now. I think it's because of the story behind her name and brand now.

 

[Jessi]

in the previous game her name was spelled "Labelle" which was probably pronounced La belle
Now she's back to label and explains that's her real name so it's probably label to fit with her sisters more

Yeah exactly in the lore she changed her name. Im guessing in this one she changed it back. Which is sweet, because it means the girls are on better terms

 

[pinkcosmo101]

Her name started as "Label", but changed it to "Labelle" (Gracie suggested it to her.) She later changed it back, so feels to say it however you like(I like to pronounce it similarly to hers sisters personality)

 

[nammie]

I'm guessing its supposed to be label like a clothing label, and this would rhyme with able, sable and mable too. I sometimes see jokes that theres another able sister named table lmao

I still sometimes call her labelle though since I was used to calling her that in acnl...

Just wanted to point out that it's actually Mabel and Sable, so their names don't even match.

I honestly just wish they would have found some name for her that was... Idk, an actual name? Would you name your kid Label? Why not like... Gable? Idk. Lol they could totally have a brother named Abel.

oh true, I guess it is spelled Mabel. Still Mable looks better

Also if they had a brother named Abel his name would be Abel Able. lol

 

[Corrie]

When she was Labelle, I pronounced it La Belle. Now that it's Label, I pronounce it like Lay-bull.

 

[BigBadButterfree]

Also if they had a brother named Abel his name would be Abel Able. lol

I've never thought of Able as being their last name, tbh. They just use it in their shop name because of their names and because they are sisters that are "able." My brother and I were debating this the other day.

 

[marea]

You know, i pronounced it as label even when she went by labelle because it better rhymes with the names of her sisters, or maybe i pronounce them in a way that rhymes lol. It is news to me what you guys said about label being her original name and her going through a "labelle" phase that she eventually got over. Good for her!

 

[Venn]

Label, but I do refer to has Labelle every once in a while, referring to her clothing line.

 

[Bethboj]

I’ve pronounced it the french way in NL, but now I think of her as a label, I think it’s scute she’s went back to her original name because it fits with her sisters names more

 

[bricoleling]

I called her Labelle when she was trying to be fancy and uppity and made that her name, but now that she's returning to humble roots, I just call her Label, like a clothing label.

 

[Arckaniel]

I pronounce it Label than La Belle now, pretty sure that it how it' supposed to be as it rhymes with Sable and Mabel, but before in New Leaf I read it as La Belle as she changed the spelling of her name there to Labelle so yeah it really depends lol

 

[zenni]

now I'm imagining pronouncing Mable and Sable's name as "Ma Belle" and "Sa Belle" lol

 

[toenuki]

i say both. when she's around, labelle,
when her sisters talk of her, 'label' bc mable and sable rhyme
