Genuinely wonderful, but Andy or Andra downplay it's stellar flamboyance. I also love her daughter's name, Cassiopeia.

Daphne Andromeda is great! Daphne is fun and summery, while Andromeda is stern and wintry, so they provide a nice contrast temperature wise. I agree with you about Ingrid Andromeda being a bit too severe. Combos (AKA throwing ideas at a wall):
For some crazy reason, Andromeda Brittani came to mind. Just the idea of pairing this statuesque, classical name, with one commonly considered "trashy". I'd actually like Andromeda Brittany if Brittany was pronounced BRIT-ə-nee and not BRIT-nee.
Andromeda Caroline. Caroline is both warm and grounding. I also like it with the Dutch Carolien.
Andromeda Clémence/Clemency/Clementine, to provide some much needed... Softness?
Edith Andromeda
Esme Andromeda
Andromeda Firouzeh
Andromeda Franzi. She sounds so fun, like a semi-legendary 18th century spy/fencer.
Andromeda Hedvig? Too much?
Ismene Andromeda, or Andromeda Ismena, pronounced the Polish way - an-draw-MED-a ees-MEN-a, all Rs rolled.
Andromeda Jane/Janet/Jean/Joan
Andromeda Lavender??
Andromeda Magdalen
