It would be nice to know the barista's side of the story regarding this. I am not going to automatically side with the person who may or may not be a victim in a story like this when we are going off of just what they say!
I've heard many strange and exotic names. If a girl was to tell me her name is Isis my first thought would not be "OMG-You're named after a terrorist organization?". In fact, I'm willing to bet that there are at least 100 or more people living in the world today with that as their first name.
Theirs actually millions. As a name with origins in various societies especially Egyptian/Greek/Roman mythology their are tons of people who are and were named ISIS before the leader of it was even born.
