Names with me don't always have to be pretty. I like them a little more if they're not--but are still usable. This is one example. I am not sure why I am drawn to it. It seems spunky and energetic and fun to me. Demetra takes every last measure of allure away from it, however. My friend Allison, who I think is the smartest classiest person in the world, named her cat this.I prefer strong and evokative to "pretty" any day.

I agree, although I kind of like Demetra for a completely different stylistic reason. I like Demeter a lot, it is very smooth and smart and I think she is a great goddess. I also like Melete for similar phonetic reasons, and I like Minerva and Cordelia because of the strong v. pretty reasons.
