Tamara Took Tamar because it looks a bit too masculine. Also took Havilah cos I don't like the look of it and I dont know how to pronounce it.

To my sweet muse
Every time you rip my heart out
Every time you break it
I pick up the pen I hold in my hands
And write the most beautiful poems
But you know what
If it's alright by you
I'd rather be happy than a poet

Taking Atara because it sounds too much like Atari for me.
Taking Esther because I've never liked the sound of it.Abigail

Taking: Dinah because it reminds me of that song (if you know it), and Elisheva because to me it looks like someone who can't spell Elisabeth.
