I know it's terribly common, but what do you think of
Isabella?
It's pretty but sounds over-the-top. I'm very surprised it became popular. I recently met a little demon child named
Isabella - terribly unruly, horrific screech...tried to steal my daughter's cup at play group, while her mom sits by clueless...needless to say that sort of turned me off the name a little bit.
Which is your favorite nickname for it?
Izzy,
Bella,
Isa or
Belle?
Isa
How many Isabellas do you know? Is it getting common where you live? Do you know any older Isabellas or only young children? Any who spelled it
Isabela?
You know, despite its popularity, I can only think of one, the little demon I mentioned before. She's 2.
Do you think its too common to be used? How about using it as a middle name?
If I wanted to use it, I would use it as a middle name at this point due to extreme popularity.
What do you think of my combo
Noah Isabella Aimée (em-MAY)? Do you think it flows well? Do the names go together?
I don't like
Noah on a girl so that kind of ruins the combo for me, more than
Isabella, although I do like Aimee...but the only name I like in that combo is dead last!!!
Do you prefer
Isabel to
Isabella? How would you spell
Isabel?
I much prefer
Isabel, and like
Isobel the best.
Do you prefer
Isadora to
Isabella? Do you pronounce
Isidora and
Isadora the same? Which one do you prefer?
I much prefer
Isadora as well, and I do pronounce them the same, but still prefer
Isadora.
If you prefer
Isabel or
Isadora, is it only because you think
Isabella is too common or do you really prefer the sound?
No - I feel the "ella" ending makes
Isabella the frilliest of the 3, and while I love feminine names, once they get too frilly I get turned off.
