Re: Isola
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
I like it BECAUSE of the "isolation" thing. It's terribly Romantic. Also the "sol" part makes me think of souls and suns, which is wonderfully poetic. This name is almost campy because it's so laden with reference and it's so serious, and that really appeals to me. It also makes me think of a lighter version of Ursula.
Of your combos I liked Isola Sabina (although I think I'd prefer Isola Sabine), Isola Nimue (wow, love this one), Isola Gwendolen, and Isola Muriel. I also like the idea of Isola Sulamith and Isola Semiramis. Also purely in GP territory Isola Medusa seems gorgeously Goth. I genuinely love the name Medusa and never get a chance to use it! I should call a cat Medusa.
