I really like it! I was a big fan of the Roman Mysteries books as a kid - their protagonist is a Roman girl called Flavia Gemina, so I've got pretty strong positive associations with it. I always mentally pronounced it FLAH-vee-a, which I much prefer to FLAY-vee-a, which I recently found out is the pronunciation some of my friends who read the books used.
