Athena - the only name I truly love.

I know two Athenas and I live in South Wales so its definitely not out there! It's pretty

Perfectly fine. If I heard it, I wouldn't even think it had been tested on MN. Good name.

It's really lovely and unusual without being bonkers.

Beautiful.

I like Greek names. Rodanthe is a particular favourite

Lovely. Not out there at all.

I don't think it's especially out there. I'm no classics scholar but I have many happy memories of browsing in Athena on a Saturday afternoon Wink.

Love

I really like it. It's a 'grower'. Even better if you have any connection to Greece (even a one off holiday) but not essential obvs. Yep. Really like it. Do it!

No, it’s a lovely name. I don’t think it’s at all ‘out there’
