I'm curious as to what you guys think of these names. Theodra is pronounced thee-od-ra and Isa is pronounced ee-sa. I've known people with both names and I think they're cool. I'm not sure of the history of Theodra, though.

Opinions?

I keep going to say Theodora! It sounds really clumpy and heavy. It's the "od". It is cool though.

My friend Noor just had a nephew born (well, a year ago) called Isa, in honour of the Prophet also known as Jesus. So, yeah, I only think of that reference really.

I love the name Noor.

And where have you been? I've missed you.

I didn't know until now that it was also a form of Jesus. Good to know - I just knew it as a feminine name.

I've been missed?! I do feel flattered. I've just been really busy with school and all that.

Ooh, I didn't know Isa was a girls name too! Ooh, interesting. I quite like the idea of it on a girl actually.

Isa is the Islamic name for Jesus, as he was one of their prophets too, and his mother (who Christians know as Mary) is known as Mariam/ Maryam.

And if you are interested in what Noor's middle name is, it is Sitara. So her name is light and star :D I don't believe Isa has a MN.

Theodra looks like Theodora with a typo. I find it a bit harsh sounding.
I find Isa really nicknamey. It's what I sometimes call my friend Isabel.

Thanks.

I think Isa is also nicknamey, but enough people have it as a full name that it's usable.

I agree with Theodra looking like a typo - I really love Theodora but X hates it. He does prefer Theodra, though.

They're not bad, but I like TheodOra SO much that Theodra leaves me with a feeling of longing for the extra o.

Isa is interesting. I have heard Essa (or Esa) before.

Theodra is pretty, but I thought it was a typo of Theodora at first. I think it would throw people off.

Isa is also pretty.
