Earlier this week, the social media user shared a list of baby girl names she loves and hopes to use one day.
But there’s just one small detail people have been taking issue with- each of the monikers Isabelle picked out are typically used for little boys.
She captioned the clip: “I seriously LOVE boy names for baby girls.”
In the video – which has been viewed over one MILLION times – Isabelle shared stock photos of babies alongside her chosen names.

Isabelle’s first choice of baby girl name was Richard – followed by Craig, Gilbert and Eugene.
Turning tradition on its head, she also included the old-school names Bartholomew, Otis and Gregory in the shortlist too.
Needless to say, the video sparked fierce debate online – and people accused Isabelle of “trolling” them with her bonkers girls names,
“Trying to figure out if this was a joke has been a stressful experience,” one replied.
Full list of ‘girl’ names:
- Richard
- Craig
- Gilbert
- Eugene
- Otis
- Bartholomew
- Gregory
Another added: “I can’t still tell if it is a joke??? She has to be trolling us???”
“After Richard, I was like “that’s odd but I bet they’ll get better,” a third wrote. “How naive…”
And while another follower was originally interested in the idea of using boys names for girls, they wrote: “I was thinking more Blake or Riley…not freaking Richard and Eugene!”
