I can't make up my mind. Some of these I would never use & some of them I am strongly considering and torn between.
ETA:
Share your choice & what nic names you would use. We already call her Izzy.

Isabelle!
Are you going to pronounce it with a Bell or a Bella at the end?

I love the succinct Isabel, but isn't Isabelle the traditional spelling?

I think it will depend on how you pronounce it like Mslipgloss said above.

@Sugar.Biscuit: Food for thought... someone I work with has a daughter named Isabelle and says that everyone at school/everywhere says Isabella anyway (after multiple corrections) her daughter has started to just accept it as her "new" name with some kids at school. I think because Isabella is so popular people just assume... I would be prepared for a lot of Isabelle (NO A!) Rawr.
ETA: My vote is ISABELLE

One of my former students is named Isabelle, and went by Isa (E-suh). I thought it was adorable.

Isobel. I always think of is-a-bell with Isabel as in she is a bell. Love the name though!

Isobel i think is the traditional spelling, but I like Isabelle too.

To me, they're completely different names... it's like Anne vs. Anna.
I would spell it Isabella or Isabel

Isabel is a common Spanish name pronounced ee-sah-bel.....so many people would pronounce it that way. I vote Isabelle, it's classic.

I'm thinking it's going to be Isabelle!! Its the one I was leaning towards & seems to fit her well. In her 3D u/s she was already adorable!

i like Isabelle - it seems from your choices that you prefer that pronunciation over Isabella. I like Isabella, but i just think of Bella/Twilight still. I definitely do not like the last 2 choices. I have seen Isobel before and i like it as well.
