Actually you don't hear much about them any more and they ve change their name a few times so she'll probably be ok
Problem is it is a very common name for things as well as being a girls name. There's the river Isis, which gives it's name to the Boat Race team for example.
Mind you there's Eta James, Ira Gershwin and Hama is a fairly popular name in some parts of the world
