How many Islas do you know?

I'm 37 weeks and Isla was a name for the baby suggested by my 5 year old DS. My husband loves it and I like it too but I'm concerned about it's popularity. I don't actually know any little Islas myself (and have lots of friends with babies and small children). How many babies called Isla do you know and how old are they?

Thanks everyone. Would be good to know what location you're in too. I'm in the North West so perhaps not as popular where I am?

Two. One 45 the other 16.

Loads under ten through work though.

I don't know any! But I do know two Aylas (pron. the same way - both with one Turkish parent).

Loads but I’m a teacher so tend to see all of the trends. I know two Islas born in the last year.

One. She has to be in her 30's now.

*loads that's should have said.

brusselsprout5 · 31/05/2022 17:38

Look ads, at least 10. But we're in Scotland so maybe more popular up here.

pinklavenders · 31/05/2022 17:37

I know 2 under 5

Three: one is 13, the others are ten. (But, then, I don't know many children under the age of 7!)
