Re: Deira?
in reply to a message by Poppylena
I think I really like it. The name hasn't quite had time to sink in yet but the connection to Yorkshire's past is really cool, and it's very pretty. I like that while it's a place name it has more of the ring of a typical feminine name. Deira Frances, Deira Winifred, Deira Constance, and Deira Phoebe are all lovely. It definitely works. My only concern would be that people might think you got kre8tyv and changed the first letter of Keira to make the name more unique, but if that doesn't bother you, it doesn't bother me. Especially since it is easily fixed by explanation.
