Parsifal

Love Persis, why has this Biblical name never been remotely popular?

If DS had been a girl, she would have been called Persephone. Have always loved the name and it's my favourite Greek myth. Plus Percy/Persie is a great nickname.

Perseus

Persida

Persis is lovely though, reminds me of Anne's House of Dreams.
