Another vote for Lyra, I think it's beautiful. I knew a Lyric once, which is pretty too.

How about Aneira? It's a name that you don't hear very often. My friend's sister was an Aneira (Ann-eye-ra, with enphasis on the eye) and she was either Annie or Neira depending on who was talking to her!

Livia is Tony's mum in the Sopranos. Not a great example!

I know a Mabel and a Tallulah (earlier on thread) - they are sisters!

Has anyone said Kunti yet?

I found it in one of those 100,000,000,000,000,001 baby names books. No idea if it is pronounced as it looks! Grin
