What a beautiful name

All these lovely names on MN recently are really making me want to try for no.3!!

Fi-day-lia. Makes me think it's the female version of the Beethoven opera Fidelio. That could either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending.

Fi-day-lia I think, as in adeste fideles.

good show - that's fairly unanimous then. I like it too. Am a fan of the 'virtue' names. Thanks to all

It's certainly different. And sounds quite nice. Not sure if it wouldn't make a gal prone to a bit of teasing if she was actually a 'bolter'...
