Izabel is the Portuguese and Brazilian spelling of Isabel, itself the Iberian form of Elizabeth, from Hebrew Elisheba meaning God is my oath or my God is abundance. This spelling tradition traces to medieval Portugal and Spain, where the name was common among royalty. Brazilian supermodel Izabel Goulart brought the spelling into international fashion consciousness.
In Brazil and Portugal, Izabel is a classic spelling of one of the most beloved feminine names. In the US, it attracts parents seeking an exotic variant of the familiar Isabella. Brazilian supermodel Izabel Goulart's global profile helped modernize the spelling.
Queen Isabel I of Portugal (1271-1336), known as Saint Isabel or Saint Elizabeth of Portugal, is venerated as a patroness of peace and charity. Isabel and its variants have been among the most regal names in Iberian history, borne by multiple queens.
