Meaning & origin

Izabela is a multicultural spelling of Isabel, itself a variant of Elizabeth. In the United States, it first appeared on record in 1987 and reached its peak popularity in 2009, but has been falling since. As of 2025, it ranks 3903 nationally, with about 1 in 43440 female births. The name is particularly concentrated in Illinois among the top states. Its appeal lies in its cross-cultural familiarity, blending Hebrew origins with European flair.

Izabela is a variant of Elizabeth, derived from the Hebrew name Elisheva, meaning 'God is my oath.' It is the standard form of Isabel in Polish, Portuguese, and Romanian, and has been used across Europe since the Middle Ages, with notable bearers in royalty and literature.
