Origin and meaning of Isotta
Isotta is the Italian form of Isolde, a name of likely Celtic or Germanic origin, perhaps from elements meaning 'ice' and 'battle' or 'she who rules.' It owes its fame to the medieval legend of Tristan and Iseult, one of Europe's most celebrated love stories. In Italy it was borne by Isotta Nogarola, a Renaissance humanist. Rare and romantic, it matches Isolde in Germanic lands and Iseult in France.
