[Facts] Re: Ysabel
Not technically, but other Y spellings have been historically recorded:
Ysabell - 1279
Ysabella - 1207, 1275, 1279, and 1283-84
Ysabelle - 1253Source: http://snipurl.com/8x6oIt'd be no surprise to me if Ysabel was used along with the above forms, even though it wasn't recorded.Miranda

Thanks for the link :-) Seeing as you're interested in medieval names, I was meaning to ask whether you know of any similar sites to the s-gabriel one, that also give masculine names?

Poppylena brought Kate Monk's page to my attention: http://snipurl.com/8xve. She appears to have taken the names from official, genuine documents, which is what I like.And then there's the parent site for the female names site: http://snipurl.com/8xvg. They have a good many more sites to look over, almost all of them focused on male names (because females were naturally far less recorded than males in this sexist time). I haven't looked through them all though.Miranda
