That's what I thought......but in reading up on the name, although it seems to be a medieval form of Elizabeth, I understood that it couldn't be construed as a 'true' translation of Elizabeth. However, now that you mention it, I recall a cover of Hola! Magazine in which Queen Elizabeth II was mentioned and her name was translated as Isabel II (or maybe it was Isabella).
