[Opinions] Re: Isabelle
in reply to a message by Flora
I love Isabelle, and its popularity saddens me. I prefer Isabelle, I love French names and Isobel... I don't know... I've warmed to it recently, but it's still not my favourite name.
Isabelle Naomi is lovely! I do prefer Noémie, though. I'm not great at making combos / suggesting names based on other names in general, but here's my best shot:
Isabelle Eléonore - I actually prefer this one the other way round, it's one of my top combos
Isabelle Freyja- love this spelling!
Isabelle Amaya- I love Isabelle Amy but it would be so common...
Isabelle Brook- used to find Brook tacky, but changed my mind after reading a book where it was used and now love it as a MN
Isabelle Jeanine- this name has been in my head a lot recently
Isabelle Nisha- Nisha is such a cute name, and I like the meaning
Isabelle Saffron- I haven't thought about this name for ages, it deserves more attention in my opinion
Isabelle Isolde- normally not a fan of alliteration but I think this is lovely
Isabelle Parvati- just popped into my head :)
Isabelle Iris- my cousins are considering this combo for their soon-expected baby
Isabelle Osanne- sounds gorgeous in a French accent!
Isabelle Frances- my sister's best friend, I complemented her parents on her name once and got very odd looks
Sorry, that's all I've got.
As for variants... I know an Ysabel, actually. At first I thought it tacky, but apparently it's their country's (Malta) variant. I don't know if that's correct, but I quite like it now.
