Gosh this is a sexy name.-- Anonymous User 8/15/2007
I really like Isidora (or Isadora) for a girl, but leave just Isidore for the guys.
I have heared that Isidore is Greek means "gift of Isis" who is an Egyptian goddess. But I like "gifted with many ideas" much better (and it fits with one of the famous bearers quite well!)
There are two Saint Isidores.
Saint Isidore the Farmer: Born in Madrid Spain in the 12th century. It is said that angels helped him work the fields. Patron Saint of Farmers
Saint Isidore of Seville: A bishop of Seville in the early 600s. Wrote and encyclepedia of knowledge known as the Etymologies that was popular for 9 centuries. Helped establish a seminary in every diocese in Spain where he made sure they learned every branch of knowledge including art and medicine. Doctor of the Church.-- jazzbunnie 3/27/2008
One of the best (albeit lesser-used) boy names out there. *swoons*-- Mondays Child 12/15/2008
I adore Isidore! It is my second favorite name for a boy. It is strong and soft at the same time. Perhaps a bit pretentious but that makes me like it even more. I have problems deciding if I like Isidore or Isidor the best.
Isidore is not a name for a girl in my opinion. Use Isadora (which I think is lovely too) instead.-- CN 1/25/2009
I don't care for this spelling. I prefer the foreign forms Isidor and Isidoro. I also don't like the English pronunciation. The French pronunciation sounds so much better.-- bananarama 3/19/2009
Isidore is also used in Georgia. There, the name is written as: ისიდორე . [noted -ed]-- Lucille 9/7/2010
At first I didn't like it to much, but after a while I started to like it more! This is a very CUTE name for a little boy!-- -BekahBoo 10/20/2010
I just discovered this name the other day while reading Charlotte Bronte's novel Villette, and I am totally in love with it. It is a highly sexy name.-- thefancyapple 6/23/2011
One more thing: Although I think both the English and French pronunciations are beautiful, the French makes it sound sort of like "easy door." Still a great name, though.-- thefancyapple 6/23/2011
Very cool name. I can't imagine it on a baby/child though but Isidore is a very grand name!-- amazingtabby 7/10/2011
Man I love this name. When I pronounce it with the Norwegian word for ice ('is', pronounced with a really soft 's' like in 'hiss'.) and if I mix that with the last part of the French pronunciation, it sounds really cool. So its like 'is-a-DORE'. I think pronouncing it that way makes the name seem really strong~.
Aaarg, I have a really strange way of pronouncing things.. ignore me /blushes.-- boykun 7/24/2011
