Isla is my top choice for a girl's name, should I ever get a chance to use it. Obviously, I love it. :-) Mirabel is NMS, but there is nothing wrong with it. Overall, I say it is a nice name.

On another site people are saying it's to hard to pronounce. And that my kid will be saying and spelling their name to everyone their whole life.
Are they just stupid or is that a valid concern I fell like Isla is popular enough and old enough that people would know how to say it not to mention the actress Isla Fisher.
It is not a valid concern, in my opinion. Some people feel anything more complicated than Amy will be too much for the unwashed masses to handle. Can you imagine how dull the world would be, forgoing legitimate, beautiful names because someone might have to learn something new?
Is everyone going to be familiar with it? No. But it really isn't that hard to get.
