Would you not just spell it Isabelle though- she'll spend her life correcting people!

+2. My parents gave me a different spelling of a common Irish name and its a pain. I'd advise using the conventional spelling.

I've heard of Isbéal but not with the extra i. Would be pronounced ish-béal, béal as in mouth. Tis lovely!
