Provides a nice little Just-So Story about the origin of the seasons! But, having heard it pronounced Percy Phone in all seriousness, I don't think it's safe to let it out on its own.

I absolutely love it! It’s a lot of name, though. We named our previous car this, but we always called her Seffie. The full name just felt like it was just a little much. (I realize cars and humans are different. Their names are used differently and humans don’t honk as easily.)

I've never met a Persephone in real life, and I don't understand why not, since the similar Penelope and Stephanie are both popular (especially the latter). It's a lovely mythological name.

I’ve liked Persephone for a long time now, and I like to think of it as a much prettier form of Penelope. It might be a bit long for a first name, though.

I think it's a little long and could have pronunciation and spelling issues
