My friend's sister had a baby: Hannah Isis

WDYT?

I kinda like it.

The only negative thing I can find about it is that both names are redundant within theiselves, if that makes sense.

Is it Eye-zis or EE-zis? or something else?
I'm never sure when I see it (it would be EE-zee-ss in italian)

I don't think I've ever heard it said with a z sound, but I'm probably not hanging out with people who Isis is a name of their culture. I've only ever heard it Eye-sis.

I don't like Isis as a name to begin with, but add to that that it just seems so extremely mismatched with Hannah, it makes for a weird name. To me.

And then, as an edit, once I finally said it out loud, it runs together as one word because of the similar sounds at the end of Hannah and the beginning of Isis. Hannisis.

Huh. I've never really understood what people are talking about when they say that names don't match, but these don't match for me. Probably because I think of Hannah as a plainish Jewish girl and Isis as a beautiful Latina woman. If I didn't know a seriously beautiful Isis I might think they go together better, though.

Isis I love but would probably not use. Hannah I really dislike for some reason.

Hannah Montana? >_< I don't like the name Hannah anymore.

Hmm, I think it's mainly because I've known a few Hannahs I've not been very fond of. To be fair, I also know some awesome Hannahs but I think people you know when you're young can really stamp an impression on names.

Was it intentional that her name be an anagram? Because "Sisi Hannah" is also a legit name. I *love* Isis, whichever way it goes. Hannah not so much.

I like it.

The contradiction between biblical Hannah and Pagan Isis (Egyptian Goddess) is intriguing...

I love Isis, but not the combo.
