Would you use this name? I know it has strong connotations of Princess Diana and her tragic death, but it does have such a classic elegance about it? I'd love to know your opinions.

I like it when it's pronounced Deeana.

It is classic, as in Diana the Huntress from Roman mythology, but is very closely associated with 'Princess' now.

i mean i know its origins are obviously much much earlier - but in the scheme of things - classic no.
