I want to name my daughter Isabella. The issue is that the surname will be Heller. We live in the UK and here we don’t say the last R. So it’s read “Hella”. Is Isabella “hella” a no no?

Sorry but no, you really can’t do this to your child. How about Isabel instead?

Oor · 02/09/2024 22:26

No don’t do that

Bigearringsbigsmile · 02/09/2024 22:26

It would be terrible. Don't do it.

Usually I love rhyming names but even I think this is one too far.

Sorry but no. Isabelle is fine.

lolamillyrosie · 02/09/2024 23:07

God no

Isabelle Heller seems fine to me though. Looks similar written down but sounds completely different which is good!

No sorry, I don't even think you should do Isobel, reminds me of Valhalla. Sadly there are just some first names that don't work with some surnames.

No really don't do it!

Ellen or Eleanor could work instead?

Unfortunately although Isabella is a lovely name and there's nothing that unusual about your surname, unfortunately together they would make her name sound like a joke.

Which is not really fair.

I think you need to choose something else.

Ummm no. You can't call her that.
