Fay or Faye, Zoë or Isabel(la)

We're really struggling with what to name our girl. She's a half-blood, and we think it's important that her name is sweet and lovely. But it also needs to suit her when she's older. I personally think Fay is such a sweet name, but I'm worried it might be too ordinary...
Thanks in advance for your help!

    I think Isabel is the cutest from your list!
    I find Isabel a bit more lively than Isabella...
    As for Fay, I definitely don’t think it’s an ordinary name. :-)
    I associate it with a “creative” type… Someone who does everything in their own way! Also a really nice name, just like Faye...
    I think Zoë is a bit less beautiful...
    Good luck!

    I personally don't see anything wrong with the name Fay. My niece is called Fay too, and she's already 20.
    I have to admit, at first I thought it was a bit of an odd name, like "fairy" (fee).
    But now I'm so used to it and think it's a really nice name. I picture a sweet little girl who's a bit cheeky and knows what she wants, follows her own path.
    But also, above all, a girl who's always ready to help others with their problems.
    Greetings, Madelene

    I also think Fay is a lovely name, not at all ordinary. By the way, I find the spelling Fay nicer/easier than Faye.

    I'd go for Isabella, but Faye isn't bad either!

    Isabella! A real girl's name, sweet and yet a bit tough! Love it!

    Zoë, we think this is a really beautiful name. We're torn between Zoë and Merle.
