I like Ithell! It stands out, but it still has the look of an established name even though this is the first i've heard of it.

I like Ithell, Ethel, and Ithel for much of the same reasons. E's and I's often make for a good look and sound in shorter names, especially with that -el ending. I'd prefer Ithell used as its own name or as a variant of Ithel, as opposed to as a variant of Ethel, especially if the origins truly are different - but it's not like you can tell a namer's intention about that kind of thing unless they outright say it, anyway.
