It reminded me of Octavia E. Butler, which is such a big-font author.

right, big font authors are big font because they are popular, so Isabella was chosen as a popular author's name, but most of the big font authors had male names (or unisex); Octavia Butler was from a later generation than these books are supposed to be from.
