Yes! I used to study Greek for a while so I know something about the -o. But taken that most feminine names in, say, Romance languages end in -a, people might have wished to change the -o in Greek names into something more recognizable in the new environment (as opposed to male names such as Mio and Pio)... Just a thought.

Completely off the topic, since you're our Greek scholar: another Greek word I've been thinking about lately is Zoë. Zooee means "life" as in "life given by God", right? Now what is the difference between "zooee" and "bios"?
