How is [name_f]Danica[/name_f] pronounced?
[name_m]Dan[/name_m]-e-ca
Or
[name_m]Dan[/name_m]-i-ca
This isn’t actually for a child I should say. I was looking for names to help me write.

Dan-Ick-Uh

Most of the suggestions I can think of have already been mentioned, but another thought is [name_f]Asterope[/name_f]! The name itself means lightning but it’s the name of one of the Pleiades and is thus very tied to the stars.
