I know of 2 sisters called Euphemia and Eucharia, not cracked on either to be honest

My aunt is called Euphemia...she get called Pheem. She's in her late 70s

I like it but it was my great grandmothers name so will always see it as an 'old' name. She was called Faye for short though which I think is lovely.
