Isolde is also found as a feminine given name in the FamilySearch Historical Records: Isolde Benford 24 Jul 1559 Fareham,Hampshire,England Number: M06306-2

Wolstenholme can be dated to James Wolstenholme, burial 16 August 1575 in Dronfield, Dronfield, Holmesfield, Dore, Derbyshire, England (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KB8Y-8RC), from Wolstenholme in Rochdale (Reaney and Wilson, revised edition, pp. 498-499).

Considering the badge for Eleanor Bywater (registered January 2022), A squirrel gules maintaining an acorn slipped and leaved proper., there is a difference for the field and a difference for the addition of the maintained/secondary charge.

3: Twin Moons, Barony of - New Heraldic Title

OSCAR finds the name registered exactly as it appears in April of 1993, via Atenveldt.

Moonbeam Pursuivant

No major changes.
Meaning most important.

Moonbeam is a ray of moonlight, according to the OED. Its earliest usage is in 1535 in Trevisa's Bartholomeus De Proprietatibus Rerum, "On the Property of Things" (https://www.jstor.org/stable/30227786).

The title was originally proposed by the first baronial herald of Twin Moons, Angela Sara Maria Diaz de Valdez, about 30 years ago, but it was never registered for reasons now lost to the mists of time. The title has been used by subsequent pusuivants, but until recently it had not been identified as unregistered.
