Well, growing up and watching old movies, I thought actresses Tuesday Weld and Piper Laurie had interesting names. But now that they've caught on they are much less attractive to me. I now see them as trendy and therefore likely to sound dated very soon.

I feel the same way about November. If you look two threads down you'll see a post about a family who named all three of their kids after the day of the week and the month of the year they were born in. See? It's not that unique anymore. Nova is OK as a nn. I'd prefer Nona as a nn; it means "ninth" and so has the same root as November.
