I think Ada or Sofia go well because the others are too similar to Isabelle. They are all great named though I like your taste.

LiveSimply · 01/09/2021 20:07

I think Sofia and Isabelle go quite well together :) lovely pairing!

ElvisPresleyHadABaby · 01/09/2021 22:02

Sofia and Libby are lovely and not voguing too much right now.

Comedycook · 01/09/2021 22:05

Sofia

ofwarren · 01/09/2021 22:09

Sofia

helpmum2003 · 01/09/2021 22:14

I like Sofia (would prefer Sophia) and love Libby. Both go nicely with Isabelle. Also love Isla but wouldn't use another I name.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 02/09/2021 00:16

Aren't Isabelle and Libby both variants of Elizabeth.
Sofia is gorgeous and fits perfectly with Isabelle.
I've never been a fan of or understand the hype over Isla.

Themeparklover · 02/09/2021 00:28

Isla Overused
Sofia yes goes well with the other name
Ada ok
Ida not keen
Libby not keen
Aria think of pll

BubbleCoffee · 02/09/2021 08:42

I like Sofia best, then Ada.

WhoppingBigBackside · 02/09/2021 17:27

Isla - nice but overused
Sofia - nice but overused
Ada - don't like it
Ida- don't like it
Libby - not with Isabelle
Aria- don't like it

I'd pick Sofia but spell it Sophia

35andThriving · 02/09/2021 21:01

Ada is nice. I don't think Libby works with Isabel, as mentioned above. Sofia would likely get a mixture of different spellings. Aria isn't my cup of tea.

Ida is lovely but Isla and Ida would both mean they share initials.

Onlinedilema · 02/09/2021 21:02

Another vote for Sofia

Givemethatknife · 02/09/2021 21:26

Sophia

Just because the rest of them are too similar in sound to Isabel (other than Aria which is too Disney princess)

merrygorounds0 · 02/09/2021 21:31

Love Isla and Ida the most. I feel like neither work well with Isabelle, though, Isla is too similar and Ida so much shorter but also with an I that it almost feels like a diminutive or lesser name?

So I'd go with Sophia/Sofia, or Elizabeth nn Libby Smile

manhattenrain · 03/09/2021 06:53

Ada, Sofia or Aria! I like Isla but I think it's a bit similar to Isabelle.Smile

WhoppingBigBackside · 03/09/2021 11:46

How about Daria instead of Aria

Theoldwoman · 03/09/2021 11:50

Definitely not another starting with a vowel.

Libby is awful.

I do love Sofia though.

35andThriving · 03/09/2021 14:39

Libby would work better, if short for Liberty, rather than Elizabeth, I reckon.

VeganGordie · 03/09/2021 15:17

Isla- love but too similar to isabelle
Sofia- not sure
Ada- love
Ida- not sure
Libby- love, cute name
Aria- not sure

Other ideas I have that are similar are:

Fearne
Darla
Pippa
Fleur
Arianna

RHODXB · 04/09/2021 09:26

Thanks everyone! Feedback is helpful abs sadly I think you are right about Ida/Isla being too close to Isabelle.
My Isabelle is known as Izzy so I am now swaying towards Emilia nn Emmie as I feel like Izzy and Emmie could be quite cute? 🥰

Have now adapted our shortlist to
Sofia/ Sophia
Emilia/ Emmie
Millie
Maisie 🙈

Favourite is Sofia, I think it goes well with your other DD's name.
