Hello.
Thoughts on the name Persephone?
We love it but are afraid that it’s a little bit too “Greek Mythology-ish”.
We also quite like the name Whitney but HATE the nickname Wit/Witt, and we probably can’t stope her future friends from calling her that.
And also what do you guys think will be a good nickname for it?
I am in love with [name_u]Artemis[/name_u]! It is closely associated with Greek mythology, but I don’t think that renders it unusable. (Before the rise of [name_f]Athena[/name_f], I might have had a different answer, but I’ve seen so many wonderful Greek mythology names popping up that it’s become rather normalized.) Besides, the goddess [name_u]Artemis[/name_u] was fierce, clever, and independent, making an excellent namesake! I find this name positively beautiful, evocative, and with a wonderful variety of sounds. Potential nicknames: [name_m]Artie[/name_m], [name_u]Ari[/name_u], [name_m]Art[/name_m], [name_f]Missy[/name_f], [name_f]Tess[/name_f].
I would not be bold enough to use this name but some possible nicknames are:
[name_u]Ari[/name_u]
[name_f]Tea[/name_f] (pronounced [name_u]TAY[/name_u]-ah)
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]
[name_f]Missy[/name_f]

Thank you guys for helping
