Names from Mythology
What names from mythology do you like? Whould you ever consider placing the name Aphrodite (pr. Ahf-roe-dy-tee) on a real person?
I'll post my answers separate.

I like Hermione, Electra, Luna, Cassandra, and Briseis. I would never use Aphrodite on a real person, firstly because I think it's ugly and secondly because it'd be a whole lot to live up to.
No, I wouldn't use Aphrodite. That would be sort of twisted. She's a modern metaphor for sex drive.
I might use or consider using (not in any particular order):
Mercury
Mars
Thalia
Tristan
Janus
Kallisto
Pollux
Pallas
Vesta
Juno
Leto
Liber
Nephele
Echo
Ceridwen
Kali
Iole
Sibyl
Cybele
Eris
Flora
Freya
Juno
Tanith
Diana
Paris
Ashtoreth
Astarte
Baal
Percival
Sindri
Chandra
Clio
Taranis

I would never use Aphrodite on a person. I don't really know any mythology names... if you listed some I could say if I like them or not.. :-)
