ArchivesRe: A female name I have come accross
in reply to a message by Chilek
What is the URL of the site in question? I'm afraid a google search only yielded the Kabalarians as citing Isia as a Turkish name. And the Kabalarians dont hold much water, unless you are into numerology or gerontophilia.
Isia may possibly be related to Isa (which is also a female name) or Isaiah (which however is a male name). I Most strongly suspect, however, that it is related to the Goddess Isis. As a matter of fact, there is a classical Greek name Isia (or Isias) meaning "dedicated to Isis. And in my book, Isis has no unpleasant connotations :)
