[Opinions] Re: Aria
in reply to a message by Altheia
I like it pretty well. I like the sound of it, it seems pleasant and "strong" and reasonably memorable.
I don't really think of the Italian word or operas, when I see it as a name. To me it could be like a version of Arya (pop culture character, but maybe also the name popular in its own right), respelled as though to avoid association with the often-stigmatized term "Aryan." Or it could be a fashionably short version of Arianna. Seems like it resonates with popular Italian names like Gianna, Isabella, Luna .... and the apparent trend for Italian / Latin words, Mia and Bella and Nova and Stella etc.
