[Opinions] Athena and Michelle.
Rather odd together but I have a few questions on them both.Nearly 10 years ago my fiance and I had the name for our first girl picked out - Lily Athena. I tired of the name far more quickly than he did - in fact he told everyone he met that he wanted to name his first daughter that. Fast forward to now - I have a nice named Lilyanna who goes by Lily, so it's out. Plus our name tastes have changed as well. That stated I've begun to think about using the name Athena as a middle name, just as a nod to our beginnings. I'm not sure what I would pair it with - our favorite girls names are: Miriam, Veronica, Judith, Magdalene, Katarina, Rachel. None really seem to go well with Athena. (Besides Judith, but Judith Cecilia is more or less in stone for our first child - more or less being the key words. :-D)The second question is Michelle. My fiance's father was over and I discovered that he wanted a daughter named after him. I like him and I think it would be humorous to use the name. The problem is that it violates my rule of not using names of living relatives and it's never been a top favorite. Still, though, I really like Rachel Michelle or Katarina Michelle. Opinions?Also, Raphael Cosmas - too much? If I used Michelle I would feel obligated to use Cosmas for his mom, plus it's a cool name.
