About Isola
Isola (named for the Celtic heroine Iseult) was the unusual name of Irish author Oscar Wilde’s younger sister, who died of meningitis at the age of nine. Wilde later dedicated his poem Requiescat to her memory.
Isola is also the Italian word for "island" and makes a nice summer-infused name on this count. If you're searching for unusual Italian names for girls, you may want to add Isola to your list.
