[Opinions] Re: A few Greek names
in reply to a message by guest33
Ariadne - I pronounce it air-ee-AD-nee. I like the way it's written, but it's very complex for me to say.
Andromeda - I prefer Ana as a nickname to Andie for a girl, but the Andie potential is still there, so this really isn't my style.
Alethea - I, too, prefer that pronunciation; but in that case, I spell it Alathea instead.
Callia - Pretty, but as far as "Calli-" names are concerned I much prefer Calliope. Or Callista, or Calpurnia.
Daphne - Reminds me too much of Daffy Duck. Sorry, can't get into this name.
Helena - I love this name! Leni is an interesting nickname, kind of cute.
Hallie - Too nickname-y for me to use as a real name.
Rhea - I pronounce it RAY-uh. Don't really care for it, though.
