Reply to: Greek name days by Pavlos
What are your thoughts on transliterating modern Greek names? Do you favour the same formula used for transliterating the older names, or rather one that reflects modern pronunciation?

In the Greek name day list I'm currently using, we have Varvara, Evfemia, Ariadni, and Elisavet. As a Greek, would you rather see Barbara, Euphemia, Ariadne, and Elisabet?
