I love Philomena, and it positively delights me that she is the patron saint of hopeless causes. Sometimes Catholicism really tickles me (I say that with the utmost respect).

It's certainly old-fashioned, but that's why I like it. However, I wouldn't categorize it alongside those names that most people consider irredeemably old and fusty (e.g. Bertha, Gertrude, etc.).
