Re: NOTD Friday edition
I love William and it's on my long list.
I think Isla is beautiful but I'm not sure that we'd use it simply because I have others I like more. It's on the loooooong list though

Isla is very pretty, but doesn't even remotely work with our last name.

I do like Isla but I'd pronounce it Iss-la.
my read shelf:
Isla is very pretty but I wouldn't use it because I wouldn't want my daughter to spend her entire life having to correct people when they mispronounce her name.
Currently on Metformin and Synthroid

William is what I want for a middle name, and is on our list.
Isla is a beautiful name and I like the meaning, but wouldn't name my child it.

Isla is beautiful, but I'm with the others who would prefer my kids to not fight spelling or pronunciation battles.
After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,
Clomid/IUI #1 3/14: cancelled due to surprise BFP 3/8/14.
Beta 1 3/11: 398 Beta 2 3/13: 728 Beta 3 3/20: 11,482
Surprise BFP turns into Surprise Twins!

Isla is pretty, but NMS. Plus, DH likes traditional names and has vetoed every non-traditional name I've put out there. ~X(
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
B/w 1/8: betas 17,345, progesterone 25.6
It drive me crazy as a child. My first name was never spelled right, but it had family history, so i eventually got over that.

Although I survived and I love my name now, I'll be very cautious in name picking for future children.

Isla is NMS and I can tell you it's REALLY not H's style lol so not on our radar.
DE IVF ER - 12/2/2016 (17R/10F = 8 frosties); FET 1.0 (1/27/2017) - BFP 6dp5dt (EDD 10/16/2017)
Isla is my guilty pleasure name. I adore it, but we lean towards pretty traditional so it wouldn't make the list. I do like it but don't think it'd stand the test of time.
FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
My friend's daughter is Ayla, same pronunciation. NMS, but cute.
Love Isla. On my list for a middle. I actually think the pronunciation is pretty obvious.
To make you feel my love.
