Ysandre?
A character name from Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel trilogy that I just can't get out of my head. I really like it. There is an Isandro in the database, so it isn't a huge stretch of the imagination.
What do you think of Ysandre?
How would you pronounce it? (I think maybe Iss-ondra?)
What types of middle names would you pair it with?

I love Ysandre Marielle...I have a Mary-name fetish :o)
I pronounced it iss-AHND-ray just looking at it. Is it supposed to be feminine or masculine?

Feminine.
Well, the character was a woman. I don't know about French name endings...if that would be a more masculine ending or not.
