These 2 girls' names have been on my mind recently. They have some of the characteristics I like for female names (long, elaborate, slightly eccentric yet traditional at the same time).
Is Ippolita useable? It's pronounced I-PPO-lee-ta (I think it's here as a user-submitted name).
I used to really dislike
Anastasia, in spite of its Russian use for some reason it gave me a "silly" vibe (possibly because it's the name of one of the stepsisters in Disney's
Cinderella), but it's been growing on me recently. Out of curiosity, how'd you pronounce it in English? In Italian it's Ana-STA-see-uh and I believe in Russian it's Ana-sta-SEE-uh, sometimes in English however I've heard it as Ana-STA-juh.
