I love Ophelia! I have a 10 year old cousin with this name, and it really suits her. I suppose the character association is made less important for me by knowing someone with the name. I also think that because of the character, most people who like the name wouldn't use it, so I can't imagine it becoming as popular as Olivia.

I do like Octavia, but I much prefer Ophelia. Ofelia looks slightly harsh to me, the "ph" looks softer. Ophelie is nice too, but I don't like it as much as Ophelia. In general I prefer girls names that end in -a anyway.
