Isabelle

The name Isabelle finds its origins in the French language and it is primarily used by parents looking for a name for their daughters. The name has been derived from the Biblical name Elisheba, which was first written in the Book of Exodus. Elisheba was the wife of Aaron, who was the elder brother of Moses. Taken this into consideration, the meaning of Isabelle is ‘God’s promise’ or ‘God is my oath’. According to the meaning of the original Hebrew name, the French variant can also mean ‘devoted to God’. The name was a modern variant of the name Elizabeth and it was first made popular by royalty in France. The name was popularized by Queen Isabelle of Bavaria, who was the wife of King Charles VI of France. Another variant of the name has been mentioned in the Gospel of Luke, referring to the mother of John the Baptist as ‘Isabel’. One famous figure with the name Isabelle is Isabelle Fuhrman, who is an American actress known for her roles 'Orphan' and 'The Hunger Games'.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
