Name I overheard today - a girl of about 10.

WDYT of Athene?

Sometimes sentences don't end the way you think they salad.

Very pretty.

I love when people take that trendy -a off the ends of names, and go more solid and bold with them.

I much prefer Athene to Athena.

Love it! I prefer Athene to Athena.

Although assuming the girl was named with the Greek goddess in mind, that's an intimidating namesake to live up to!

I far prefer Athena. Athene -- not bad, but Athena is a lot better.

It sounds a bit pretentious. I prefer Athena, which is warmer.

It feels unfinished. I like Athena better.
