Isadora or Isidora?
Which spelling looks better? The name means "gift of Isis" in Greek and both spellings are historic variants.

I like both, but I prefer the way Isadora looks.

I prefer Isidora, because Isadora looks too much (to me) like "is a door".

IsidoraIsadora just reminds me of Isadora Duncan and her unfortunate scarfy death.

IsidoraThree reasons I prefer Isidora over Isadora:(1) It's the feminine form of Isidore
(2) I have a thing for "i's"
(3) Isadora looks like a poor substitute of Isabella

Isadora...Looks much nicer to me, and it also makes sense for the way I prefer to pronounce the name, "iz-uh-DOR-uh". If you prefer the short "i" sound, as in "lip" to the "uh" sound, then it makes more sense to spell it with an "i".

IsadoraIngen text. Förresten så skulle jag inte uttala Isidora och Isadora på samma sätt.

IsidoraIt's more alert and sharp. Isadora looks like she's channelling Isabella and I don't like that.
