[Opinions] favorite Ancient Greek name
I wanted to ask, what name from Ancient Greece (real and/or mythological. I have no idea if there was a poet named Orpheus or a strongman named Herakles, I just know they have cool names and that's enough for me).Mine is probably Leon but Orpheus is a close second.

I like a lot of ancient and mythological Greek names. Of ancient Greek names, my favorites are probably Sophia and Damianos. My favorites that aren't currently common or have common variants are Athenais, Pantaleon, Pantheras, and Serapion.
From Greek mythology, I like Calypso, Psamathe, Sarpedon, and Tethys.

Interesting. Had I lived abroad (In Europe or the anglosphere, I mean), I would seriously consider using Maxime and Theodosius as names for my kids (Mentioned as Jewish names in the Talmud).
