I really like Arianna. I met a girl with that name once, and she had very white hair and very pale skin.

How do you say Polyxeni? I like the way it looks.

I'm far from fluent in Greek, but I'd say it would be something like "Po-lee-KSen-ee".

Polyxeni would be poll-ee-ZEE-nee according to my Greek Mythology knowledge, but a Greek speaker might pronounce it differently. It's a variation of Polyxena.
