HelpGaladriel & Orion
These are names of the two main characters in the Scholomance series. Galadriel despises her name and goes by El - her mom is a hippie.
The only times I've come across Galadriel is in books and as a joke - IE why did my parents do this? The first time was in the book The Great Gilly Hopkins by Katherine Peterson (highly, highly recommend).
Orion is meh. Parents are Ophelia and Balthasar.
Other characters are Liu, Aadhya, and Liesel. The book is set world-wide and Novik did a very, very good job of choosing apporiate names for each character.

I actually really like Galadriel as an IRL middle name. It's a lot for a first name though.
Orion is okay, I like it in theory, but I think it's almost overused. It looks better than it sounds, and sometimes people pronounce it like to sound more like O'Ryan so it gets generic surname vibes instead of mythology vibes.

Don't like either name, like Liesel though
