*Abigail was once considered a Puritan name and later became the stereotypical name for a servant or secretary. Today, this biblical classic is getting a well-deserved makeover. It still has its colonial aura of simple purity, but has shed its dowdy starch. Now, Abby is cute, Gail is sophisticated, and the full Abigail is the mainstream of fashion.

Abigail is:
a female Biblical character;
a 1987 King Diamond album;
...and a Venezuelan telenovela.

Middle Name Pick: Abigail Elisabeth

Urbandictionary (just for fun): A super-sweet girl. Extremely gorgeous and tons of fun. When you meet one you will want to be a huge part of her life but you would have to be very lucky for it to happen. An Abigail will stay on your mind forever so you will know when you meet one.
