I like a lot of Is- names (
Isadora,
Ismene,
Isobel,
Isabel,
Isolde,
Isidore) but I've never really enjoyed
Isabella. I don't like the
Bella sound. But it's pretty.
Hate
Bella. Like
Izzy and
Isa.
Belle is okay.
I know more older
Isobel /
Isabel / Isabelles than Isabellas. I probably know a handful of Isabellas older than 12. They're all Italian I'm pretty sure. But yeah, a LOT of young Isabellas.
Too common here. It could be a pretty middle name.
I like
Isabella in the mn spot.
Aimee softens it but not huge on
Noah in the combo.
Much prefer
Isabel. Probably spelled
Isobel. (My best friend's name.)
I love
Isadora, probably just because a) I adore
Isidore on a boy and b) it doesn't have the
Bella sound!
Much prefer the sound. Helps that they aren't as common, but that was like
Emily and
Emma when I was growing up. And growing up in a VERY Italian Catholic community in Melbourne, it sounds weird to me having all these little blonde pale Bellas running around.
