== Name == The name appears in different forms: Izsépy, Isipi, Isepi. The official version ‘Isépy’ is the archaic form of the phonetically correct ‘Izsépy’. Etymologically, the name is traced back to the Greek Εὐσέβειος or the Latin form Eusebius, which entered Hungarian as Özséb, or to the name Josef (József).
