[Opinions] Re: Isidora

I think Isidora is really cool! 9/10
But not Isadora. Isadora seems like Machelle or Abagail to me ... subbing "a" for an i and making a lazy "uh" sound ... it's just trendy and incorrect. I think it's only popular because a lot of people have heard of Isadora Duncan or someone named after her, before they heard the name Isidora - and so they just assumed that Isidora was the same name as Isadora and that Isidora was a minority spelling, rather than the original spelling. It's like a mistake. They're not the same name. In my opinion Isadora doesn't mean "gift of Isis" - it's just Isabella and Isidora smushed together, and it has no meaning. And it starts with I SAD and that bugs me. 2/10
