Interesting, indeed! Must confess myself bemused at the thought of the blessed St Aphrodite ...
And thanks for the Eutychios info! A friend of mine (Dimitra) is married to Eftychios Eftychis, or maybe it's Eftychis Eftychios; I find him quite pleasant, though he rather resembles Prof. Snape in the HP movies, but not quite up for a double happiness name award.
Dimi has never forgiven him for insisting on naming their second son Creon, for family reasons. Not the kind of myth she cares to perpetuate!
