Aghavni

I've only met one person with this name, an older woman. It was often mispronounced by others, so she went by a nickname. I really like its meaning, and the name in general is nice as well.

Aghavni... the pleasant fluttering of wings and the sweet coo of a dove. Aghavni, I imagine, carries within themselves the essence of serenity and compassion, qualities revered in Armenian society. She speaks to a longing for balance and harmony, offering solace in times of strife. Kindness, empathy and reconciliation in fostering understanding and unity among all people... a timeless emblem of peace, Aghavni spreads their wings to encompass hearts and souls.

It's a very pretty name, but since I'm American (not of Armenian descent), if I were to name my daughter this, everyone would probably caller her ah-GAHV-nee instead, and that would be annoying.

Somehow, although the "G" and the "H" together would normally put me off, this name appeals to me. I think the final "I" gives it spunk.
