[Opinions] Isabinda
Over on the Name Facts board, someone posted asking about Isabinda, a name which has been in his family for generations. It evidently was created by the playwright Susanna Centlivre for a character in a play back in 1709, probably by blending Isabella with the -inda ending, which was very popular at that time with poets and playwrights in England.Do you think Isabinda would be a good alternative today for someone who liked Isabella but is put off by that name's present huge popularity? Or is -inda just too unfashionable an ending for Isabinda to work at the present time?
