I really like
Lydia for its slightly Gothic charms. It puts me in mind of
Edgar Allan Poe, it's got that kind of delicate darkness to it, and it's a lovely purpley shade. There is something undeniably chilly about it, though, that keeps me from warming up to it completely. It very much feels like a character in someone else's story, I can't quite connect to it. I'd love to hear about a baby
Lydia.
Hmm, how would I combo
Lydia....
I feel like it needs something a bit more staid next to it, to better show off its qualities. But nothing too filler or boring.

I want something long and strong like
Margaret,
Catherine, or
Elizabeth that isn't
Margaret,
Catherine or
Elizabeth, y'know?
None of these ideas are really pleasing me.
