Felicia, Olivia, Eira or Athena? (more)
Replies
Probably Olivia, though none are faves of mine.
Eira does nothing for me.
Athena does rather too much. A very ambitious choice, and it would be sad if she grew up dumpy, with bad skin and low standards.
Felicia is a pretty little blue daisy where I live, which I love, but as a name for a human I'd go for Felicity.
Which leaves us with Olivia, which is very lovely as long as it either doesn't shorten or shortens to Liv.

Hmm, I wasn't even thinking about pronunciation, just that a kid would have to grow into the name itself.
With that in mind though... with little-kid pronunciation, wouldn't "a-see-na" be just as likely as "ei-wa"?

Semi off topic, but a friend in high school had a toddler age beother named Rourke. He needed to do speech for his Rs and so called himself WO-uhk.
Olivia, because I like the way it feels to say it.
I like them all but if I was putting them in order it would be:
Athena - Strong, intelligent, and beautiful
Olivia - I wish this beautiful name was less popular
Felicia - I slightly prefer Felicity
Eira - I prefer Ayla or Aileen or Eileen
Athena would be the one I'd use of these. I'd technically use Felicia before I'd use Olivia because Olivia is just too popular but I think Olivia is slightly cuter and livelier.
