So my husband and I are TTC and and I always have a short list of favorite names. i have boys name picked but like with my son's pregnancy I have the hardest time finding a girl's name I love. Recently I ran across Isabeau in book and I kind of love it. Nickname Beau (a mild Lost Girl reference maybe?). What do you guys think about Isabeau?

Also I met a woman named Arika yesterday. Her mother named her Erica but when she was 22 she legally changed the spelling because she was "too special" for a normal spelling.

A long while back, I think someone in this comm mentioned Isabeau and I thought it was frigging horrendous, but then later when I started reading about Isabeau of Bavaria, I liked it a lot more. Knowing that it was someone's name in the 1300s, it made it seem less trendy and ugly to me. Although, I think that just Beau can work on a girl.
