Help[Opinions] Io
What do you think of Io? Too many heifer comparisons?
Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I know the story. That's why I asked about it.

While I get what you mean with the mythological Io (don't think it would be an issue), and Io as the volcanic moon is a pretty cool association... what prevents me from using Io is the dreaded I.O.U. As in, I owe you (something).

Since the first thing that pops into my head is one of Jupiter’s moons, I don’t get the heifer connection. I kind of like it but it seems so incomplete.

Ee-eye-ee-eye-oh.
It just isn't complete as a name unless it has at least one consonant sound in it to me. It's just a fragment.

Io is a guilty pleasure for me. I love it, but it's not very practical.
I once read a Russian short story where (if I recall after 40 years) a young woman is named Io ("EE-o"). She's in love with Rudolf / Rudolph and somehow starts calling herself (or them as a couple?) Rudophio / Rudolfio. I think it was written in the 1920s so it greatly preceeds the Bennifer / TomKat / Billary / Brangelina, etc., phenomenon. Anyway, it always stuck with me as a cool name.
Io Ruxandra? :0)

I can’t get past the fact it means “I” in my first language.

I don't know what you mean by heifer comparisons.
One of my teachers had a baby girl last year and named her Io. I think it's an intriguing and appealing name, but I wouldn't use it myself because the spelling is insubstantial and there's very little nickname potential. And no consonants! Although I kinda like that, it's fun. Io's older sister is named Liana, which I prefer.
If we're gonna go for Greek mythology, might as well go the whole nine yards with the middle name.
Io Calliope
Io Hestia
Io Persephone - my favorite
Io Thalia
Io Zoe - this would make a good sci-fi name I think

What does that mean?

the moon io is beautiful but has so many volcanoes that it's erupting nearly every day so in simple word; the beautiful are deadly

A plant with volcanoes? Maybe a planet?

It's one of Jupiter's moons.
