Makes me think of
Hester
Street in New
York
City first, then
Hester
Prynne (based on a woman named
Hannah
Prynne - you and
Nathaniel
Hawthorne are kindred spirits). Still, I like it a lot, much prettier than
Ester
or
Hestia
.

I didn't know Hawthorne based his character on a real person. Neat! Thanks.
I like
Ester
/
Esther
too. I just think
Hester
has an artsier vibe.
