A facebook friend of a friend is:

Isabeau

What do you think?

At first I was like "WTH?" but the more I say it the more I like it.  I think it's a neat variation of Isabelle - except for the whole Belle = girl, Beau = boy thing.  (The name was on a girl)

The only place I've heard Isabeau was the woman in Ladyhawke. Great movie, good character, but I never could warm up to the name. In fact it was sort of a distraction throughout the movie. Like you said, it means BOY, and even the sound of it never flowed well to me. Isabeau's sweetheart, on the other hand, had the very dashing and dramatic name Navarre. No idea what it means, but I like it!
