Isabeau -- the high and lowlyTwo royal Isabeaus of history were...The 15th century Queen Isabeau, wife to King Charles VI of France.
The 15th century Isabeau of Lorraine, wife to René of Anjoy, King of Sicily.One not-so-royal Isabeau is briefly mentioned a couple of times in Victor Hugo's 19th century novel *The Hunchback of Notre Dame*. Isabeau la Thierrye appears to be a woman of "easy virtue" in the novel.-- Nanaea

It sounds made-up to me. Beau and Belle both mean "beautiful" but Beau is the masculine form of the word.
