The etymologies given on Isigny's website are highly dubious and look like (not very educated) guesses of whoever designed the page. Latin toponymy doesn't really work that way, and I can't think of many towns named after Isis. The French wiki cites "Isiniacum" (from germanic name 'Iso') as etymology for all the other places named Isigny in the area - would be good to find an English source for this.2A01:4B00:F411:4D00:C861:FC8B:688B:54FD (talk) 14:27, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have a copy of a letter from a soldier who provides the information for the deceased soldier's widow which says that her soldier was buried at [Isageny] Isigny, France. I cannot find a historical record of soldiers being buried there. It was only temporary since in 1948 his body was sent back to Nebraska for permanent burial. ~2026-23021-4 (talk) 21:23, 11 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
