Re: Esther
in reply to a message by Fictionfan861
Esther is sweet, elegant, and with a certain down-to-earth dignity. I associate Esther with the queen who saved the Jewish people from genocide at the hands of the Persians and with the goddess Ishtar. For whatever reason, I also associate this name with the stars.
I have only met one Esther. She would be around 25 now. She was slender with short dark hair. At the time that I met her, she was interested in the theater and drama.
Esther Victoria
Esther Madeline
Esther Scarlet
Esther Gabrielle
Esther June
Esther Athena
Esther Violet
Esther Margaret

I have just about the same impressions and associations as you, including stars, though I had forgotten about Ishtar. It also makes me think of Esther Williams, the swimmer/actress. In addition to the description you gave, I would say that Esther is quiet and stately.
Like you, I thought of Esther June. I also really like your suggestions of Victoria, Athena and Margaret. I'll add Esther Frances.
