Which would you choose and why?
What would you use for a middle name?
Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Larissa, because it’s less common than Melissa and I don’t have any previous associations. Although Larissa looks like an incomplete Clarissa (which I find more appealing).
Larissa Molly was the first combo that popped into my mind but it’s really not my (usual) style. Larissa Mary to tweak it a bit?

Melissa to me sounds like she would be younger maybe late 30s. Larissa sounds like she might be in her 70s.
Not sure why!
I'd probably choose Larissa as it's more unusual

I'd have to choose Melissa. Larissa just gets Lara's Theme from Dr Zhivago playing in my head. I don't enjoy either of them, actually; if I had to use a -ssa name, it would be Vanessa.
Melissa Helen, maybe? Keep the Greek theme going. Nothing floral, because of the meaning. And, on the subject of meaning, I prefer the much less frilly Deborah.
