[Opinions] WDYT of Isla
Pronounced EYE-LA? What are your thoughts? Any good MNs?

I obviously have a fondness for it
It's been my favorite girl's name for around 5 years now. I'm not sure I'll ever use it because of the possible spelling and pronunciation confusion it might cause (plus I live in a Spanish speaking area so being mistaken for EEZ-lah is even more of a likelihood :-/). But I still love it, unwaveringly. SOme of my favorite combos (besides Isla Candis) are Isla Camille and Isla Maeve.

love it. i would use it if the middle names i have would sound better.
I like it a lot, and if the general population was anything like the population of a name board I think it would be great.
I'm pretty cynical though, and unfortunately I think the average person would be unable to pronounce this right. Having to explain EYE-la not IZ-la over and over would make me crazy.

Kiss kiss, babe =D
Thank you all of you for your responses! I am so glad everyone seems to like it. It may be the name my husband and I chose, seeing it is the ONLY name we can agree on :)
