1. I think it's a bit of a Madonna name; there's one Cleopatra, and everyone else sounds a bit silly with the name. You need some serious style to pull this one off. I do, however, love Cleo, Clea (CLEE-ah), Cleone (CLEE-oh-nee), and Cleona (clee-OH-nah).

Cleopatra's nice--I won't fault that--but I do wonder if it's a bit much as a first name. It offers Cleo, Pattie/Patti/Patty, and Pat as "grown up" nickname options, which does make it more useable, IMO. Perhaps as a middle name? You could still call her by it--she could totally be, like, J. Cleopatra Stills, but if she wasn't comfortable with Cleo, she could go by her first name.

2. The reaction would depend where you live, I suspect. If you're surrounded by Jacobs and Emilys, I think that little Cleopatra could have some difficulties with her name. If she's growing up with other kids who have more unusual names, it might work out better for her.
