[Opinions] Re: Isolde
I've never been sure how to pronounce Isolde. Iz-OLD-a? Eye-sold? Eye-Sold-A? Neither one of those sound nice at all to me. Susannah Isolde seems like it would be too hissy to sound good.

so three syllables, right? I kind of like it better that way, although I've been saying it wrong in my head.

I've been saying it "iz-old" but I'm not sure that's correct.

If that's right, or even if most people do say it like that, it's even more unattractive: Susannah Is Old.
