[Opinions] Re: Some names from Greek mythology...
in reply to a message by Amandine
Amalthea - I love this, reminds me of The Last Unicorn
Atalanta - I've always thought this would be a cool name for a dog who likes to run
Eurydice - I like this as a middle name for first names that are simpler but still read as romantic/dramatic
Persephone - Similar to Eurydice, but I'd expect Persephone to be more likely to work as a first name
Hermione - I love this one although I think of Harry Potter first
Clio - It's fine, but I prefer Kleio. Clio looks incomplete and reminds me of Cleo, which looks more stable
Chloe - I don't like this as much, it's too pedestrian compared to the others
Phoebe - It's sweet and I like that it's also a bird
Antigone - Great as a middle name
Ariadne - I love this one, I used to think it was only middle name material but it's grown on me as a first name
Thalia - I like it, but the pronunciation I like isn't listed here so I don't know if it's weird or not (THAH-lee-uh)
Pandora - Good, I think of this more as a cat name but I'd like to see it on humans
Calliope - Very pretty, perfect balance of whimsical and usable
Perseus - I like this and want people to use it more
Apollo - Same here
I also like:
Athena
Gaia
Rhea
Artemis
Cassiopeia
Ourania
Briseis
Megaera
Nausicaa
Ione
Hippolyta
Demeter
Selene
Hestia
Andromeda
Thalassa
Orion
Achilles
Daedalus
Poseidon
Proteus
Orpheus
Helios
