No, I have no idea about Safala. I've never heard it before.

Of the boys I like Marenius. The others seem strange to me. Of the girls I like Genoveva, Altea, Vestalia, Vesta, Adelaida, Magdalen and Lavinia. My favourite is Vestalia, I think that is gorgeous. A combo that I find strange but interesting is Valkyria Syster Bernhardina. Perhaps her parents were very religious?

Look, Runa Giva Villy Vesta is my new favourite name.
Oddly enough, I was trying to name a new character in my story and was trying to decide what to put with Runa Yeva. Maybe the answer is Villy Vesta.I know someone with the surname Ceres, but I've never seen it as an actual given name before.Agard looks like it should be Asgard, but someone wrote it down wrong.Valkyria is pretty brave.
