Can you help me decide between our top 4 choices?
We have a LOT of criteria. We're looking for a name that
- is classic, preferably Greek in origin, or possibly Latin
- is not overused these days
- is recognisable, nothing that sounds weird or made up
- is easily pronounceable in English and German, so no Rs, Gs or THs (I'm sure there's more)
- if possible has a nice meaning. This isn't an absolute essential but would be nice
With that in mind, we currently like four names:
Marlene (Mar-LEH-nuh, as in the actress Marlene Dietrich)
Leonora
Antonia
Philippa
What do you think? Do any of them sound very odd/exotic/foreign to you? Can you think of others that might fit our criteria?
