Hi !!!!

WDYTO this Mythological name and its forms?

Aglaia is one of the three Graces and her name means 'beauty, splendour'.

Aglaia (Greek Myth, Italian)
Aglaé (French)
Aglaya (Russian)
Aglaïa (Elaborated)
Aglaea (Latinized)

In Italy Aglaia is still used but nearly extinct. Infact less than five babies born in 2016 have this name.

I absolutely adore the name Aglaia. Gorgeous and meaningful. Aglaïa is my favorite spelling, because it makes the pronunciation clear (the A and I are pronounced separately).

Love Aglaia, Aglaya, and especially Aglaé. So much. Would love to see Aglaia used more in English.
