Revised ed. 1884 says, ‘it is still used among the northern peasantry’, a remark which is left unaltered in the 2nd edition of her work (1884), though Mabel must by then have been returning into fashion. It was a favourite name in the last quarter of the 19th C. Mabella Curia Regis Rolls 1189. Mabillia Curia Regis Rolls 1196. Mabilia Hundred Rolls 1273, Feudal Aids 1284.
