Comments for URANIA:

Urania is also the goddess of love, the counterpart of the Greek Aphrodite.

Urania was the goddess of a different kind of love to Aphrodite; Aphrodite was goddess of romantic and sexual love, Uranis was goddess of brotherly, universal love for other members of the human race.

In Greek this name is pronounced aw-RARN-ya, not yoo-RAY-nee-a.

In Modern Greek it is pronounced "oo-rah-NEE-ah" or "oo-rah-NYEE-ah."

Too close to uranium to me, although the Greek version, Ourania, is really pretty. The one "o" makes a big difference to me. :)
