Alexandra "Alex" or "Allie" - Most if not all women I've met named Alexandra or any of it's derivatives (Alexis, Lexi, Alex, etc.) have been of poor character, so unfortunately I hold a bias toward this otherwise beautiful name :(
Ginevra (too tied to Harry Potter?) - I think that now that the Harry Potter hype is slowly fading, it can be used. That's not too say that people won't recognize it! Try using Evvy as a nickname instead of Ginny.
Hera - This is one I'd be worried about-- naming someone after a wrathful, jealous goddess. The original and quintessential crazy lover!
Antonia - I'm neither here nor there with Antonia.
Thomasina - Beautiful. I've loved it since I was a little girl. It's a very sweet and warm name.
Harriet - A name I wish I liked, but don't. Hettie would be a cute nickname.
