[Opinions] Re: Isabella
in reply to a message by drnom
Popularity aside, I just don't like it. Never have, never will. There's nothing appealing about it to me, at all. Its main components, IZ and then BELL, just sound ugly to me. I've heard it described as "pretty princess", but it's not at all "pretty princess" to me. If it were, I'd like it, because I like "pretty princess" names. All I can think of when I hear it is a middle-aged, very dark, overweight woman with a mustache. And very dark hair on her arms.If a name that I like is overused, I would advise against using it due solely to its overuse, but Isabella is a name that I would advise against and never ever use myself even if it weren't in the top thousand.As a middle name, if it were honoring, I'd say okay, otherwise, no.
