HelpRe: WDYT of these name's I'd consider naming my (hypothetical) daughter?
in reply to a message by Tatsugiri
Ashe - If the 'e' is silently, then I would leave it off. I prefer it as a nick name for Ashwin, Ashwyn, Ashild, etc...
Constance - nice
Dorothea - Pretty with a nice vintage feel. Lots of cute potential nicknames.
Juno - Fun in a spikey way. Juno was not the most sympathetic goddess, but I like her name and would enjoy a good revisionist take on her mythology.
Liliana - nice
Maribelle - It sounds like a glamorous cartoon cow. It isn't awful, but it feels over the top and extra.
Rowan - very handsome
Yumi - It is a cute Japanese name, but it does sound very young. I have no idea how it would be perceived by a native Japanese speaker.

Yeah, I am slightly hesitant over Juno because of the goddess, but I feel like it's fine, since I've met people named Apollo and Aphrodite, who were possibly even worse than Juno (albeit, they are from different mythologies).
... I completely forgot about Clarabelle from the Mickey's Clubhouse series...
Yumi does feel very young now that I think about, so I'd probably use it as a nn for Yumiko.
