Too surnamey and too masculine, like Victor and Hector. Aster and Esther are nice though, and I quite like Asta.

Just wondering

When you pronounce it in English do Astor and Aster sound different to you? Because to me they don't and on that TV show the last part sounded like -ter (as in Esther and Aster).

It would depend on the accent of the person speaking, but they'd probably sound pretty much the same to me, too.
