I’m familiar with [name_m]Israel[/name_m] as a name but I’ve never seen this feminine version before. Since [name_m]Israel[/name_m] has different pronunciations in different languages, I’d wonder how Israela is meant to be pronounced.
I think it’s pretty. I’m saying it in my head like “iz-ry-[name_f]EL[/name_f]-a”. Like [name_f]Raphaela[/name_f]. Is that right?
Not too fond of it, but I’m not a fan of country names in general. I find them to be a bit too politically charged. Also, the pronunciation could get confusing and I can see it getting mixed up with [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]. What about [name_f]Isadora[/name_f]? Or for something more out there, Ismena? [name_f]Indira[/name_f]?
It’s a super gorgeous name yes but it’s foreign policy is a different matter 
I pronounce it Iz-[name_u]Ray[/name_u]-La
Perhaps if I spelt it Izrayla ?
Izrayla or Israyla might work better. That way you won’t have to deal with the [name_m]Israel[/name_m] connection and I think the pronunciation you’re after comes across better. I think it’s pretty, I’ve never come across it before.
I’m not a fan.
