Trying to figure out this name from my family ancestry. They’re from Brislach in Baselland. I can’t even tell if it was a male or female as reading all this Latin in old writing is dizzying. Entry is from 1851 in a style of handwriting from that time; some letters are very different. My best guess is it starts with a J and has a d in the middle?!

I included the extra bits for comparison.
My best guess would be some variation of “Isidor”

It’s likely Isodorus Egli.
Ask on r/kurrent aswell
