Took me to Velia in reading your responses that you weren't referring to English lol I was wondering how Abene = arm to you :P Google tells me your referring to Finnish? I admit I know next to nothing about that language, outside of it inspiring the names and vocabulary of one of the planets in my sci-fi story lolAnyway, I agree with Besarion. I came across it recently and the 'arion' sounded cool but I was kinda meh about the 'bes' start. I added it to my pnl though I'm still not entirely sure I like it. It sounds like the sort of name I'd like though lol

Only Embla and Vesta interest me.

Most of them sound like they were invented for a Hunger Games knockoff.
Dindrane is particularly awful, like drain cleaner.

Dindrane is an Arthurian heroine. Fairly certain it's not pronounced with the 'drain' sound. Would you think it was nicer if it were Dindrana?

Marginally better but still essentially unusable.
