Isla, because it's timeless, whereas Aria could end up sounding like a Game of Thrones throwback. I know the character was Arya, but still...
OTOH if that's not a concern for you, Aria is lovely.

There's a few Aria's found here, various spellings. I much prefer Isla, it's beautiful, although I know it's popular too.

Isla.
Both are popular but Aria will date badly and sounds awful in some accents.

Oh sorry @Slouise92 I didn’t RTFLBlush

You probably wouldn’t like my children’s names though.

Both incredibly popular. Aria only popular because of a tv show. Aria will not age well.

Both hideously overused and boring.

Is there nothing else you'd like?

Chlosavxox · 03/12/2019 20:07

@twinsizedmattress nope, hence me making a thread to chose between the two Smile I like them both, thanks for your input though

Isla.

Aria is a fashion name and will date badly.

@Slouise92 the poster meant they hadn’t read the whole thread but misspelt it. No need to be so bitchy without knowing what was being said.

Isla. I loved it in holby never thought of Isla Fisher when I has my DD over a decade ago.
It probably is very popular now.

Isla is actually much rarer than it used to be. If you check the stats then it peaked about 5-10 years ago and has declined every year since. There’s 2 Isla’s in my sons school in the older classes but none in the younger groups, which reflects the statistics I suppose

I think it’s beautiful but I love Aria too.
