Isabelle, Isabel, Isobel, or Isobelle?

I’m back!
Unfortunately we can’t use this (lovely) name as it is my sister’s name but as it has so many separate spellings, I was just interested to see what the general preference is.
What is your favourite ‘[name_u]Isa[/name_u]/obel/le’ combination? E.G. [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Hannah[/name_f].
All thoughts welcome!
Thanks

[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] is my fav.

I like [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] the best! But all the spellings are beautiful. [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] is pretty sweet

I like [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] best, but I like [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] as well (I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] to [name_f]Isabel[/name_f])

I like [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] the most, I love [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Juliette[/name_f]!

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]!

Before my daughter was born we went back and forth on the spelling [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]/[name_f]Isabel[/name_f], we chose [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] and I’m very happy with it.

Definitely [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]!

JemimaK · November 24, 2015, 3:22am

I love [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]!

I have [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_u]Clare[/name_u] on my short list.

meganashley713 · November 24, 2015, 7:29am

[name_f]Isobel[/name_f] is my favorite spelling.

dancersventure · November 24, 2015, 10:19am

[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] or [name_f]Isobel[/name_f].

I like [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] best although [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] is a close second. the extra “le” at the end makes it look too cutesy for my taste. I like the sound of [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Odette[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f].

samosier24 · November 24, 2015, 10:48am

[name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is on my short list. [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] that name.

roseofjune · November 24, 2015, 10:51am

I prefer [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f].

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is classy and chic and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] is grave and fairytale-esque.

Nemorosa · November 24, 2015, 11:31am

Definitely [name_f]Isobel[/name_f].

i want honour an isabella in the future, so a combo i have had in mind for years is: miriam isabella, since i’m italian. i’m also considering miriam isobel since i live in scotland. isobel is SO cool, and i love the nickname miso

i actually kind of dislike isabelle and isabel, which is weird since i [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] isabella and isobel.

mommytomany · November 24, 2015, 11:44am

I like [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobelle[/name_f] the best!

jagienka · November 24, 2015, 12:13pm

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]. [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] seems misspelt and male.

essa · November 24, 2015, 12:24pm

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] has always been my favourite but lately [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] has been growing on me, I think I actually prefer the simplicity of it.

I like [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Poppy[/name_f]

birdies · November 24, 2015, 12:41pm

I prefer [name_f]Isobel[/name_f].

I have [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] on my short list. I couldn’t really find a name I LOVED as a middle for [name_f]Isobel[/name_f], but for a while I had [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] on my long list.
