If you heard the name what would your first thought be on spelling? (Really don't like isobel spelling).

Isabelle

Isobel is my favourite spelling but of your two choices I much prefer Isabel. Isabelle is too unnecessarily frilly

Isabelle as it's just beautiful...and my daughter's name 😍

Isabel or Isobel. I think it's odd to use the French spelling if you're not French

ballsdeep · 29/08/2021 21:49

I have Isabel

Isobel, rather than Isabelle.

Basilandparsleyandmint · 29/08/2021 21:42

Isabelle it’s the French version and lovely

DramaAlpaca · 29/08/2021 21:41

Isabel. Isabelle is unnecessarily frilly and too 'pretty'.

Soulstirring · 29/08/2021 21:40

I prefer isobel too

Lulu1919 · 29/08/2021 21:40

See I'd spell it
Isobel

Isabelle

I would spell it Isabelle :)

Blueroses99 · 29/08/2021 21:32

Isabelle. I don’t think the other one is a common spelling?
