I much prefer Antonia and Athena.

I don't care for it at all. To me it's got a stuffy vibe to it. I don't really see how it or Athena (which I like) would honour an Anthony either.

---

Antonia is lovely. I also like Antoinette to honour Anthony

I adore Anthea! It's deceptively simple (because subtly baroque).

---

I prefer it to Antonia, which I also love, and to Athena, which doesn't stimulate me.

---

Anthea Florence is perfect.

I like Anthea very much. It's a nice, not overly used classic with a pleasing meaning and I think it works very well as an honour name for an Anthony - even more so if you live somewhere that pronounces Anthony with 'anth'.
Antonia is also nice, but I prefer Anthea, and I don't think Athena works.
I like Florence and Li best from the middle names, but whatever has most meaning to you.

I quite like Anthea, but not enough to use it. I was at school with a pleasant Anthea who never had a nn at all.

Anthea actually works well to honour an Anthony - not an Antony, though!

---

Athena has got zilch to do with Anthony. I'd use Antonia before Anthea, but either would be fine.

I find Anthea a little bit hard to say.Athena is easier. However, neither is as close an honouring name for Anthony as Antonia.
Though that doesn't give you the nickname Thea, if you particularly wanted that.

Maybe Thea Antonia, plus your choice of middle names. Three names are ok, our older son has 3.

wishing you good luck!
