That, like you said, it's common. I'd use Isadora or Arabella much quicker than Isabella.Isa is pretty, and you hear Bella a lot, so that's nicer. Especially if the I is pronounced like EE.I'm not sure how many Isabella's I know, but it sure is cropping up quickly. I don't know any Isabela's.I like the form Isabelle best. Also, the Irish and Scottish forms are pretty cool (Isobel, Iseabail, Ishbel, Isibeal, etc.)
Yeahhh, I wouldn't use it. And personally, I'd use the mn space as a place to give names that either you just need to fit into the combo somehow because you undyingly love it, or because it's too pretentious/unusual for a fn.
