Re: Melpomene
in reply to a message by Ismene
I named a grumpy pegasus Melpomene in a story when I was eleven, and I always think of her when I hear this name. :D Pegasi aside, I've always liked the sound of it, and I think it could work IRL.
I say mel-po-MEE-ne in Swedish by old habit, but I suspect it really should be mel-POM-e-nee, like Penelope or Persephone, which also sounds better in English.
