Re: Beatrix, Nyx, Xena or Lux for a girl?
in reply to a message by Guest
Nyx and Lux were never used as names in Latin, and in English Nyx sounds like 'nicks' and Lux is, well, soap. Night and Light wouldn't work for me as given names either. Xena looks like a spelling mistake: I'm not familiar with the tv original. That leaves Beatrix, which is definitely OK but which I'd never use because Beatrice is a family name which I have given to my daughter.
