I have recently noticed i have a love from greek and roman mythology names! And i think it has alot to do with loving loooong names (i recently read the blog ‘thats a lotta name’ and realized i have a love for the mouth full names haha)! And i was wondering if anyone could possibly list the names of greek and roman mythology that they know and list others that they think fit the type Thanks!
Also really quick, Me and Hubby had decided to use [name]Philippa[/name] for a future daughter, however today i ran across [name]Philomena[/name] and i [name]LOVE[/name]it! However they are [name]WAY[/name] to close for comfort! So which do you personally prefere? [name]Philippa[/name] or [name]Philomena[/name]? Thanks again!
I love Greek and Latin/[name]Roman[/name] names, too. Behind the Name has great lists of names from mythology:
I prefer [name]Philomena[/name] to [name]Philippa[/name]-- I think it’s lovely. I actually know a little [name]Philomena[/name] who goes by [name]Mena[/name].
I thought it was funny that you mentions [name]Antigone[/name] because that is one of the ONLY plays i remember reading in highschool, haha. But thanks so much everyone for all your name suggestions!
Ha! That’s the first thing I thought of when I read the name [name]Antigone[/name], too. I think [name]Phillipa[/name] sounds fresher and more attractive. I love the idea of choosing a mythological baby name. When you’re named after a goddess, success tends to follow. Think of companies like [name]Nike[/name] and and [name]Sephora[/name], both the names of goddesses. Not that your child is a company…
