This occurs in my family tree and I wonder if it's a version of Isabel or Sybil? No way to know for certain, without asking her parents, but which is more probable? The time frame is circa 1540, England, and they were Quaker, if any of that helps.

Most prob. Sybil - the second vowel was probably not very defined, almost certainly schwa. :)
