Re: Phryne
in reply to a message by Andromache
I like how complex this name is. It looks strange, sounds strange, has an "unappealing" meaning, and yet its namesake was this beautiful, renowned woman. It has personality. I actually really like the story of Phryne's life.
Wikipedia says Phryne's real name was Mnesarete: "commemorating virtue". That's cool too!
