I love Elmira and think it is attractive. It's due for a comeback. My great-great-grandmother was one of twelve children, the youngest of which was named Marian Elmira Robey, and called Myra. While there were many attractive children in the family, Myra was said to be the prettiest of all of them (although, I think Annie Keturah was also very, very pretty). My grandmother has a large portrait of her hanging above the fireplace. It is also a feminist gesture on her part -- Myra died at age ~20 from a botched abortion. It's a horrid story, but one that has influenced me.

An influential story indeed! Marian Elmira is a ravishing combination and a worthy namesake.
