Re: Magnolia Corvina Betancourt Jordan: seeking feedback on this name.
It has a very young vibe; by that I mean the author, not the named character. IRL, I wouldn't expect to encounter it at all. Corvina is particularly unlikely.

. . . or, maybe a middle-aged author who hasn't read much of the kind of "romantasy" that is published these days, and isn't very knowledgeable about which overdone stereotypes she needs to avoid stumbling into, lol! I also have a very unusual first name--like I'm only aware of two other people who have ever had it--so possibly it's hard for me to cast a judgement on a fictional name based on how likely I would be to hear it in real life.
