Oscar Wilde had a sister called Isola who died as a child.
I think it's pretty though it would be interesting to see how much usage it has as a name (or rather, why did a little Irish girl end up being called Isola in the 1850s? :) )

Used a lot 19th cent. England.
Who knows? I'm not sure about Ireland but it was reasonably popular in England during the 19th century if that helps any. I like it.
