I love this name and as a Spanish speaker this name would suit my future daughter who will be born sometime this late June or early July. My dw likes it as well and we both have relatives in Spain, which will make it easier for them to pronounce, a lot better than the way more popular version known as Isabella.

This spelling makes more sense then Isabella in Spanish, because the double L sound in Spanish is pronounced with sort of a Y sound. Horse (caballo) is said as ca-bye-yo, for example. Isabella pronounced as Is-A-Beh-Yuh sounds less pretty then Isabela for me. Isabela looks a bit better then Isabella to me and seems less trendy despite a one letter difference.

Looks strange spelled with one L.

In portuguese Isabela is pronounced ee-zah-BE-lah. Here in Brazil is written in many ways, with s, z, l, ll, y etc.

Extremely uncommon in Portugal, but used widely in Brazil.
