Re: Delphina vs Lyrianna
"Epic" is a music genre? I'm so interested in this, please tell me more! I need examples.
Lyrianna definitely looks like the kind of name one chose for oneself. It's got strong "magical girl main character in a YA novel" energy. If you're shy about that and want it to look "natural" I'd say maybe simplify it (to Lyra or Lianna maybe) or stick with Delphina. Also Lyrianna would probably be shortened by people, it's very long. If you're ok with that, then it's all good, but if not, keep in mind you won't hear your full name very often. You will *always* be asked to spell Lyrianna and people will absolutely butcher it, so keep that in mind. I love Delphina and think it matches what you're going for really well, but I love brainstorming so I'll do some of that anyway. Sensual and cute at the same time, so, something with coquette vibes..

Lalita
Darla
Lettie (like Sophie's sister from Howls Moving Castle)
Simone, Simona, Simonetta
Bettina
Mischka (this is technically a masculine nickname but it's so cute. Look more into Slavic diminutives, they are always a great mix of sexy and sweet)
Suzette
Mimi
Clementine
Sukie
Rosalita
Pomona ("Pomme" would be so cute)
Mirai (this is a kind of trashy modern Japanese name that means "the future" and I've always thought was so cool, I just love its silvery aura)

Hi! Thank you so much for your answer! It's so complete and useful! Also, Epic music is a modern music genre. It's called "Epic" because it has a cinematic feeling, that makes you imagine a story related to the music you're listening to. Several YouTube channels have songs from different composers of this genre, like HDSounDI and Epic Music VN. My favorite composers are Evgeny Emelyanov and Mattia Cupelli. I'm listening to this almost every day since I found out about it! Although, it's not the type of music that I can listen to in the car or at a party (it's very intense, and you need to pay attention to it the same way you would pay attention to a movie). It's a very beautiful, emotional type of music to me!
Wow, thanks so much, I'll check those musicians out!
