[Opinions] Bisera
I'm newly enchanted by Bisera, which comes from the South Slavic for "pearl." During my Fulbright teaching year in Bulgaria, I didn't encounter any women named Bisera, though a teacher at the high school was named Biserka. Associations for native English speakers with words like "bison," "bistro," and "bisect" may prove obtrusive, but I love the name regardless. Thoughts? The emphasis, by the way, is on the first syllable, and the name does *not* rhyme with "viscera" (another possible obtrusive association, LOL).Some combos:Bisera Nadine
Bisera Louise
Bisera Helen
Bisera Violet
Bisera Mabel
Bisera Camille
Bisera Ellen
Bisera Agnes
Bisera Daisy
Bisera Delphine
Bisera Maude
Bisera Amy
Bisera Lilac
Bisera Colette
Bisera Noemi

I think it's pretty!
Don't like it at all
This is a name that I'd consider a guilty pleasure, solely for the English-speaking associates; I like the way it looks and sounds, but I'd never use it. Your combinations sound pretty nice, though my favorite is Bisera Maude.
