How would you pronounce...
...Iseabail?
Any combos would greatly be appreciated. I haven't come up with anything good yet.

I know for a fact that Irish Isibeal is pronounced, "ISH-bayl." (I absolutely adore it.) So I would say that Scottish Iseabail is either said the same way, or with a slight "uh" in between the syllables. But that's a guess. Iseabail Fleur?

MAR-sa-lee.Oh, Iseabail Gardenia Pearl is gorgeous! I would prefer just Iseabail Gardenia since two mns are like overstimulating or something. But very pretty.

Wow, Iseabail Marsaili is adorable! Definitely my favorite of your bunch. That's some stiff competition- Iseabail Gardenia and Iseabail Marsaili. I don't think I could decide between the two. =)

I'd pronounce it like the names Isaiah and Belle hyphenated (So like Isaiah-Belle), but that's just me.

I'd probally go for Ishbel or Is-bul. I'm from Scotland but don't speak Gaelic

I agree with you, I lived in Scotland as well and did Gaelic for a short time, but I'm very rusty.

I've seen both the 'ISH-bel' and 'ISH-ah-bail/-bel' pronunciations. I greatly prefer the latter, but I'm not 100 percent certain whether it's accurate or not. Maybe it is akin to Clara being pronounced 'CLAR-a' and CLAIR-a' and both being correct.Is anyone on here from Scotland or have Scottish relatives?
