Isle
Isle Origin and Meaning
Isla is a contemporary gem, so why not Isle? As an English word name, it takes you straight to the literal definition — a small island — which could have an appealing, aspirational ring to it, for those wanting to raise independent children.
Despite having the sharp, bright sounds of Isla, Iris, and Ivy, a similar end to Hazel and Mabel, and h all the same letters as Elsie, Isle has yet to appear in the US stars. What is it then that puts parents off?
Maybe because the proximity to shop aisle or the fact it rhymes with eyeful? Perhaps it just hasn't been discovered? Still, with word names in vogue and names relating to the sea piquing interest, could Isle — or even Islet (Islette?), Quay, or Shore — be next?
