Tanith, Atheris, and Touch
I love retro B horror movies, and they often have interesting names in them - both of characters and actors.What do you think of these recent discoveries:Tanith (played by a Niké)
Atheris (this is a genus of venomous vipers - it was a movie about a "snake-woman")
Touch (Touch Connors, born Krekor Ohanian. He received the nickname "Touch" from teammates on his high school basketball team and his agent made him use Touch Connors as his stage name - Connors hated it and later changed it to "Mike Connors")
Zaranda
Touch really surprised me, but it does have a sporty "all-American" mid-century nickname-name vibe to it, like Skip, Shep or Dutch. I can definitely see why he hated it, though the sound itself is ok. Atheris I loved (it's so OTT Gothic), and Zaranda is fun too.

I like those. Touch is really interesting - it's a completely novel take on the Skip Shep Dutch thing. It's so much gentler and mysterious. It does actually have a touch sound like Dutch, but the fact that it means this neutral/gentle thing and is spelled in this open, Frenchy way gives it a completely different feel.Atheris is fun.Zaranda is a fun party. Tanith idc about.

Tanith is alright, I think.
Atheris is surprisingly pleasing, both visually and audibly.
Touch as a nickname makes sense, but I just couldn't see it as a full name.
Zaranda is my absolute favorite - it reminds me of a new-age version of Miranda. In a really good way, haha!
