(Sorry, I put this in the wrong spot.)
I think Maya Ophelia flows better than Ophelia Maya, but Isis Aurelia flows just fine. Maya and Aurelia are very pretty, but I don't think I'll ever be able to like Ophelia or Isis. Ophelia makes me think of a schizophrenic girl who drowns herself. (Or at least, I remember that she tries, but I don't remember if she succeeds. I haven't read Hamlet in awhile.) I don't mind God/Goddess names, but Isis seems a bit over-the-top, especially if it's not culturally or religiously appropriate. I much prefer the similar sounding Iris.
