[name_f]Isobel[/name_f] looks best to be - succinct and tidy:)

This is so hard. I like all the spellings and flip flop between all 3.

I love both [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] and flip back and forth between which I prefer more. I prefer both to [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f], though, as I like that they’re pared back and not frilly!

I adore both [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isabel[/name_f]. I slightly prefer the Scottish spelling, [name_f]Isobel[/name_f], for personal reasons. I totally dislike the [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] spelling, it turns me off the name.

I like all of them! [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is my favorite spelling. I love the -elle ending. [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] is also very pretty. In my mind, [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] looks more traditional/classic while [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] fits more into modern choices. [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] is a great name, but I don’t pronounce it exactly like [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f].

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

I like [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] the best. The ‘belle’ ending makes it look so distinctly feminine and pretty.

[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] is the one I’ve seen the most, but I have bad personal associations with the name. [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is my favourite – I love how the -elle ending looks.

I like [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]. I pronounce them slightly differently to each other, so for me your preferred pronunciation would dictate the spelling.

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] is my preferred spelling.

[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] has been in my top 3 for a future daughter since forever, perhaps a top 1 these days despite the popularity. To me, it looks softer, sweeter and more romantic. I also prefer this variant because I love french names for my future kiddos, but want something that works cross-culturally as well.

[name_f]Isabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] are pretty in their own ways though. Can’t really go wrong with either.

I prefer [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]. I voted for [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] because for me, it has an ethereal, naturey quality that I love. Good luck!
