Help[Facts] Re: Isabeau
in reply to a message by katja
Devonelisa, when she was here, gave me this which I saved:
"Isabeau is feminine, an older French variant of Isabel/Isabelle. Belle and Beau are incidental, not really the connection, it's a diminutive form, -eau being a standard diminutive formation of the time."
