Polyxena or Xenon
Replies
What about Xenia for a girl?
It looks to me that Xenia would be the female form of Xenon.
I had an old relative named Xenia, it was pronounced as "Senya".
Polyxena looks like a noun b/c of the "poly". Polyester, polyglot, polygamy etc.
I like Xenon better than Polyxena, but I like Zenon better (a different name of course).

When I see Poly like that, I think of polyester or some kind of plastic material. It doesn't seem like a name to me. And the first thought when I saw Xenon was Xerox. Both names are definitely nms.
I posted, and then I see that we think alike:)
I dislike either. they're sort of wierd, to me anyways. If I had to choose, Xenon.
