Opinions on Isabel?

What is your opinions on Isabel? DH loves Bella, but I think of Bella more as a nickname. Thank you!

It is a nice name, nothing wrong with it. I like it.

Just not something I would use. I could go without hearing another Isabel / Isabella / Bella. Way too popular for my liking.

Isabel is nice

Soooo tired of hearing Isabel/Isabella/Bella....  Pretty name, but way over used.  

MissyCee

Beautiful name, WAY overused though.

It's a beautiful name that I'm totally sick of. Bella IS a name on its own. It's Italian and means "Beautiful." Perhaps you could do Belle, which is even less used.

I love Isabel! I much prefer it to the too frilly Isabella. However, I could never use it due to the popularity of Isabella. Maybe Annabel is an option if popularity bothers you as well?

I prefer it spelled Isobel.

It was on our list, it's a beautiful name but we scratched it due to popularity. Of course popularity doesn't bother some people so if it doesn't bother you then, yes it is a beautiful name with a sweet nn. I very much dislike the nn Izzy though

I like it, but Bella is so popular I'd probably try a different nickname. Izzy?

This was my thought, but I always liked Grey's Anatomy more than Twilight anyway.

My name is Isabella. I never heard anyone with the same name until I was in my 20s! Now it's everywhere however i still love it and have always gotten compliments. My nick name is Issy though not Bella.

Thanks for all the opinions! DD is Hailey and DS is Trevor, Hailey is popular so popularity doesn't really matter, what matters most is trying to find a name DH and I can agree....thanks again!
