[Opinions] Glafira/Glaphyra
Today I came across a new name to me: Glafira, an Italian and Russian variant of Glaphyra (https://www.behindthename.com/name/glaphyra/submitted). It isn't quite my style, but I appreciate its ancient background and good meaning.What do you think of Glafira and/or Glaphyra?

To me, it really sounds like a prescription medication. "Ask your doctor about Glafira..."

Both are cool. I'd definitely use those for a fantasy setting.

Love it! First heard it in the Soviet movie "Come and See" and have been enchanted by it since. It's glossy and pure.

The more I say it I think it is ok, I like the Glafira spelling better

It really doesn't roll off the tongue easily. Otherwise, it's OK but I still don't think it would be easy to go through life with this name.

I agree. I think 'Glafira' looks pretty written, but I don't really love the sound. Overall a cool name but not my taste
