I owe, I owe ... it's off to work I go ...

Perhaps it's short for Ione, or Iona.

I really like Io. I always forget about Io.

---

I think it would be great for a character. I'm not sure how usable it is in reality, though.

Io is one of my boyfriend's favorite names! I love that it consists of merely two vowels.

I knew a girl named Io (EE-o). Two letters is too short for my taste but it's ok in a story.

I love Io. It is perfect for a character in a story. I don't think I'd be bold enough to use it on a real child, though.

Love Io

---

I read a Russian short story once where the female protagonist was named Io. She was very young and in love with a character named Rudloph. She fancied they were so in love that they made a whole new person she called Rudolfio. It always stuck with me.

---

I have a thing for feminine "i" names. Io has got to be one of the funnest names in existence, along with Echo (echo). Only two letters. Turned into a cow (or something) in Greek myth. A moon. No consonants. What's not to love?

---

Io Ruxandra is my combo.

I love Io. I love pretty much any names starting with Io- actually. I went through this phase when I was in junior high when I wanted to name all my kids after Jupiter's moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Amalthea, etc. The Greek mythology association is plus too.

I like it :) I named a moth Io once. She'll inevitably conjure up images of being turned into a cow at first, but I think you can use it for the character.
