Isla, girl . It's I - one and sla(p)/make-up. The 'tip taken' means to remove the end of the word.

Thank you so much both of you. I assume Isla is a girl's name but it's a new one for me.

It's quite a common (ie not unusual) name, Scottish originally. There's an actress called Isla Fisher and Isla St Clair used to be a hostess on the Generation Game,

Sorry. Swmbo sent me to bed so I was not able to see your reply until this morning. I have to admit that I had never heard of either of these ladies and I have never seen The Generation Game. Is it a comedy or a quiz game or something?
But thank you again.

Never seen The Generation Game? Ah, the innocence of youth. Saturday nights in the 70s, just after Dr Who, with Bruce Forsyth ("Nice to see you, to see you, nice). "Cuddly toy, cuddly toy!"
