[Opinions] Calypso?
Ah I'm in love with names from Greek mythology. Kallisto is still my favorite but I also like Calypso. I would spell it Kalypso, though.Kalypso or Calypso?Is the story (mythology) too tragic?Calliope/Kalliope, Kallisto/Callisto or Calypso/Kalypso?

Kalypso.In the version of The Odyssey i read it was spelled Kalypso, so im used to it like that.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the name though. It's gorgeous. And i really dont think enough people read greek mythology to know its a tragic story.
In my opinion at least. I always make society dumber than it is htough

I love Kalypso (this spelling). I don't really think about the stories of Greek names. I just think about the name itself. The sound and the meaning.

I never found the story terribly tragic.Calypso / Kalypso has a very breezy, beachy feeling to it, probably because of the island that she's associated with in the mythology. It's a refreshing feeling; I like it.Calliope / Kalliope is probably my least favorite of your choices, simply because I don't like the way the syllables flow together. It's a mouthful, and it's just not entirely pleasing for me to say.Kallisto / Callisto I like better, though not as much as Calypso / Kalypso. I'm not really sure of the why on that one.

I prefer Calliope / Kalliope to the rest, and then Kallisto / Callisto. Kalypso looks best to me of the two options. I don't think the story is too tragic, in fact, I don't really think it's tragic at all.

That's funny, but I recently tied the names Calypso, Callista and Calliope together. Definitely use C's. You might also like Cressida.

I like Calypso and Callisto. Calliope is cute.
