Re: Thinking about changing my name...
From your list, Athena is my favorite. But really if you are thinking of changing your name, try using it in various, less permanent contexts: Starbucks, stage name, ask a couple friends to try addressing you as the name - see if it really feels like “you.” Ultimately that’s more important than what names some strangers on the internet like! :)

I totally agree on the Starbucks/Restaurant thing! I did that for a while. I'm really wanting to change my middle name (Dudley), but I can't...it would destroy my dad (I'm the 4th generation of my name. As much as I despise my name and dad). Like Melody02 said, a name that makes you feel happy matters more than our opinions.
