Isla Soleil

[WSLTitanic1912]

What do you think to the girls name Isla Soleil?
Means Island Sun.
Surname is , so the people of mumsnet have said I can't really use Summer. As it would be Summer .

Thanks

Gorgeous name. Both pretty and strong, with a nice meaning.

Too much for me - makes me think of sunblock, to be blunt. I don't think Isla Ball works well in itself either, unfortunately.

Sounds like a cocktail

Agree it sounds like the name of a product, like a sunblock.

Isla is a nice enough name but very popular. Isla soleil sounds like a holiday resort.

Soleil Ball gets quite close to Soluable in my head. There is Kalinda which means sun In Hindi.

I agree with PP. Sunscreen, cocktail, holiday resort. I’m not sure about Isla with your surname.

Another one who thinks Isla Soleil sounds like a suntan lotion. Sorry

Just no

I think I stayed in the Isla Soleil once. Two-star sort of place.

I like Soleil and you can have Sol as non. There’s an actress called Soleil Moon Fry isn’t there? I’m not keen on Isla though.

I think it's pretty but unfortunately my first thought was a European holiday park.

Soleil is masculine in French for that reason it's ano from me

Sunna is Norse goddess of the sun. That would be better than Soleil - which is masculine.

Isla is a nice name if you're happy with the fact that it is so popular.

Not sure Isla works with your last name either.

Isla Ball doesn't sound good!
It's like I love ball (s)

Isla definitely goes better with the surname than Summer and Arabella, but it still doesn't feel quite right somehow. Isla Soleil does sound like a holiday resort to me. The whole name doesn't flow nicely either - Isla Soleil Ball is a bit of a mouthful.

Sounds like a Club Med holiday destination!

I agree with the sunscreen comment. Isla Soleil reminds me of Ambre Solaire.

Isla soleil sounds like a Spanish holiday resort!

Both lovely names individually but not together imho.

Sounds like an all inclusive resort.

It's a mouthful!

Why do you want to call your child Island Sun, though? (Many people will struggle with the correct pronunciation of soleil as well).

Sounds like a hotel
