I like
Athena alright. I know an
Athena, she's about 35. It's a little bit geeky to me, in a good way. Too associated with war for me to make a favorite, though.
I dunno about
Athina, I don't think I've ever seen it before. It's not quite as appealing to me as more familiar
Athena.
Maybe it's popular for the same reason
Atlas and
Orion and
Phoebe and
Odin and
Titus and such are... heroic sounding names, especially classical ones, are sort of fashionable.
Apollo,
Ares,
Freya,
Hermione,
Luna,
Aurora all have a sort of similar vibe IMO.
