Hieroglyph Name Guide






Isabella in Hieroglyphs
Ancient Egyptian scribes wrote foreign and personal names phonetically, sound by sound, inside an oval cartouche. Here's how "Isabella" translates using that same system — the exact one used to cast every piece on this site.







Hieroglyphic writing traditionally recorded consonants, not vowels — a letter or two in "Isabella" may be omitted above for that reason, not left out by mistake.
