I have heard Isolde pronounced in three ways.

Is-ol-da
Isul-day
Is-old

Which is correct?

In the movie it was Iz-auld (I have no idea)

Not sure but there was an Isolde in my class at school and she pronounced it Is-ol-da.

I think I prefer Iseult, pronounced "Iss-ult", though. (Unhelpful).

Yes I like Iseult better (sorry, also unhelpful).

Will get shortened to Isa anyway. Just avoid any Tristans Grin

Is-ol-da is the pronunciation for that spelling.

Izzollda. It's a lovely name but I would assume you like opera and Wagner.
