Electra

I do like it but I feel like it's pretty out there.

So unique and full of energy. I feel like this would be a perfect name for me because I play electric guitar.

This name is actually so pretty, though I hate that it reminds me of that gross “Electra complex” theory.

My name is Electra and I love that it is. Though I am often called electricity, electric current and the likes which I find rather silly, still I am glad I was named Electra. It's a powerful name and I hope to live up to it.

My name is Electra, and I'm glad it is too. It's a powerful name of a powerful goddess. But, as a kid I was teased a lot as kids called me electricity, internet, wi-fi etc. Where did they come up with this I don't know. But it's an unusual name that should be celebrated not made fun of because hardly any people have this unique name.

This name electrifies me, it's so beautiful ❤️.

Electra is full of electricity, I'm not lying.

It's a bit "out there", but it's kind of pretty and cool-sounding. I think this spelling looks and flows better than Elektra. The Italian version Elettra is nice as well.

Sounds like the name of a phone brand.

Too technical sounding.

I love the name Electra, my parents almost used it for me, and I would have preferred it if they had. Sadly, even though it sounds nice, it's a name you have to be careful with because of it's not-so-pleasant origins.

I would like it... but I can't not think of Carmen Electra.

The names sounds awesome and IS awesome though I prefer it spelled "Elektra". •ᴗ•.

I really don't like this name: it reminds me too much of electricity.

This is such a lovely, classy name. Not very common, easy to pronounce. It's so cool!

Electra is really cool! I love the spelling! It has an edge to it!

This name is so electric. I love it! It has an extra spark. :-)
And I definitely prefer Electra to Elektra--the 'k' in the middle looks odd to me, and (in my eyes) interrupts the flow.
I think Electra is fitting for a child, an adult, and an older woman. It is spunky, that's for sure.

Awesome!

I think this name could age with you. I can picture baby Electra, child Electra teenage Electra, whatever. It always sounded very intelligent to me.

I like it. It sounds really different and cool.

I think this is a really cool and ultra-futuristic name. Hmm, perhaps a bit too futuristic for my tastes, I suppose. I think it would suit somebody born in the 23rd Century just fine, though. :)

I think Electra sounds very modern and invented. It reminds me of the word "electric". It is a cool name but it is far from beautiful.

This name reminds me of a ditzy blonde model.

I love this name. It sounds so unusual and dramatic, and it's still really cool and pretty. Electra is not a name that you would forget easily.

Reminds me too much of electricity. Especially the word electrify.

This is a very cool name. It's just that the history of the name (the Greek myth, the Electra Complex), slightly ruins it for me. Still, a great-sounding name.

Besides being the name of a murderer in a story, and sounding like some kind of supervillian with lightning powers, imagine how this name fits with most last names. Electra Johnston...?

The jokes about the Electra Complex would be endless. Besides, this name sounds like a pseudonym for an over-the-top singer or actress or something. Sure, it sounds pretty cool, but how cool will it be when the woman is 45 years old, let alone 60? The name just doesn't come off that spunky on someone who's past the age of spunk. Of course, it could be that the girl turns out quite shy or just really ordinary and conventional and hates the attention her name brings.

I love this name, it's from Greek mythology and the 19th James Bond film The World Is Not Enough (1999)!

I think Electra is a cool name. It makes me think of the word "electric". It makes me think of a girl who is very unique, some would say weird, kind of a punk-rocker, and isn't afraid to be herself. Though I like to spell it Elektra better. The K makes it seem harder and more original.

My cousin's name is Electra, and I had an ancestor named Electa. Origins of the name, meaning, and namesakes are, to some extent, unimportant if you like the name.

Not a nice name, given the background, naming someone shouldn't be just about how it sounds or what it means, the history behind the name is as important.
