Never go to Nineveh... I heard that place has a bad reputation.

Sorry, this was supposed to be under original post!
I like Honiara and Taormina for a girl. Honiara is the capital of Solomon Islands and Taormina is a beautiful town in Sicily.
Other place names that could serve as proper names:
Alexandria
Annecy
Avila
Barletta
Bronte (a town in Sicily)
Chania
Constanta
Derry
Evora
Geneva
Hamilton
Havana
Jericho
Kandy
Lhasa
Lima
Manila
Medina
Merida
Mirissa
Morelia
Olinda
Padova (Padua)
Salamanca
Sevilla
Siena
Sintra
Sirmione
Tirana
Valencia
Valletta
Varna
Verona
Vienna

I've seen Verona used- they're in the obits when I've seen them, though.

Cyrene does sound like it should be a name!

Yeah, I think so too, and Lydda and Alinda.
