Help[Opinions] Re: Sapphira
in reply to a message by kookiemonster71
I pronounce it as sah-FEAR-ah as well. And I like the spelling Saphira; sa-FIE-rah just sound strange, imo. In Christopher Paolini's books, The Inheritance Cycle, one of the main characters, a blue, female dragon, is named Saphira. Since reading those books, I've become quite fond of the name though personally I would never use it because of the association with the books.
"Hi, what's your name?"
"Saphira. I was named after a fictional dragon in a chronicle books that never faired well." :o/
But then again it could be seen as:
"Hi, what's your name?"
"Saphira. I was named after a book written about the adventures of mythical dragons. Wanna play Barbies?"

Hmmm... I have seen the movie only because I have kids. I first heard of the name in a book called "Mama Day". Sapphira was the name of a slave. I have been in love with it since then.
I love the sound of it and the imagery of sapphires. It doesn't hurt that they are my birthstone. :0)
