[name_f]Calliope[/name_f] is a lot more out of left field than [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_f]Theodora[/name_f]. If it was just [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] and [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] you could maybe get away with it but with how classic [name_f]Theodora[/name_f] and [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] are, [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] doesn’t fit stylistically. Maybe if you added something more mythological or unusual it’d be better

I think these are all lovely names, but in case you weren’t aware, I wanted to let you know about an especially unfortunate association with the name [name_u]Laramie[/name_u] which to me renders the name unusable. Under the spoiler if you’re interested but it’s very intense.

In 1998, [name_u]Laramie[/name_u], [name_f]Wyoming[/name_f] was the site of a fatal and very-reported-on hate crime against a young gay man named [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] [name_m]Shepard[/name_m]. For many, [name_u]Laramie[/name_u] is heavily associated with this. I would compare it to naming someone [name_f]Columbine[/name_f]— a pretty word, spoiled by something absolutely horrifying and infamous attached to it.
