HelpRe: Isabeau
in reply to a message by Lily8
The ending is actually eau not beau something which has been discussed quite a bit in the past on these boards :)
I find it a very feminine name.
I dont like Estella Isabeau though I can't quite figure out why as I like both names individually.

so is it pronounced Isab-eau ? I don't get it....all I know is that I find it so weird when people name a girl Beau (I know one)...eau is the French word for water...I kind of like that. plus l'eau is feminine hehe

Its pronounced sort of like Iz-ah-boh I am not very good at writing down pronounciations.
If you do a search for the name you will find it disscussed by people who are far better at explaining things than me.
It might be clearer if you also know that Isabelle isn't actually Isa-belle but Isab-elle.

yes you're right that Isabelle is more like Isab-elle....I never even noticed. I speak French and I say Isabeau like ee-sah-bo but I'm also not good at writing down pronunciations :P
