[Opinions] Re: Isabeau
Oh wow, you met a real-life Isabeau? That's pretty amazing! The only bearer I know of is the heroine of the movie Ladyhawk, played by Michelle Pfeiffer (so of course, she's stunning). May I ask what country you taught in? Because despite the fact that I think the name is gorgeous, I'd think it would sound odd outside France (or another place where French is widely spoken), given how medieval it is.Isabeau was in my Top 10, once upon a time, but I don't remember any combos I'd set up. Of your combos, I like:Isabeau Adela (also Isabeau Adelle)
Isabeau Diana
Isabeau Francisca (also Isabeau Frances)
Isabeau Ginevra
Isabeau Matilda (also Isabeau Maud)
Isabeau Nerissa
Isabeau Theresa
Isabeau VerenaI'd also like to propose:Isabeau Clothilde / Isabeau Clotilde
Isabeau Lucine
Isabeau Nerida***Please rate my personal name lists:www.behindthename.com/pnl/69381

I also know an Isabeau, here in South Africa and with no French roots that I know of. She's a very nice older lady, married to a very distinguished retired judge. Used to play a lot of tennis.I prefer Isabel and especially Isobel. Isabeau seems to be trying too hard.

Isabeau Clot(h)ilde is stunning!This school is in the U.S. (about 20 minutes north of Baltimore). The student might have French heritage...
