Greek gods and goddesses

[Alyssum34456]

I love makes like Hera, Hestia, Dementria for girls. Any other strong but not overused Greek girls names?

I'm also struggling to think of middle names and whether they would sound silly if a completely different type of name e.g. Felicity, Florence

Eleni is a modern Greek version of Helen which I really like.

Make sure you know the stories associated with the name you choose.

Apart from that. Fab route to take OP!

Artemis is amazing
Elena
Rhea
Thaïs
Persephone
Philomena
Gaia
Phoebe
Serene
Maia
Olympia
Ariadne
Ismene

No one else will care about the ins and outs of the characters

I would. I always presume snootily that the parents of all these little Junos have never read the Aeneid. On those grounds, I wouldn't use several of these names, but I would particularly urge you to discount Medea and Phaedra!

I recently read the book Circe- great story.

Apart from SumandSubstance most people will not themselves know the Greek myths behind the names nor expect you to. Many people don’t know the meanings of any names they choose

I love Artemis.

Artemis, Demeter and Phoebe.

I love Athena and Artemis. If I were to do it all over again I’d choose them as my daughters’ names.

I love the name Kore (Persephones name before she was abducted)

I really wanted Eris but was vetoed (went with a different Greek goddess name)

Saving it for if I ever get a cat now.

Lovely thank you!

Cibeles (Spanish spelling) or Cybele. This is the Roman name for the goddess Rhea. This would be a very unusual name in the UK. I prefer the Spanish spelling as the other sounds a bit like Cybil.
