[Opinions] Odessa
What do you think of Odessa? I'm really liking it now, as a feminine of Odysseus. The fact that it's a place name bothers me a little, but I don't think that would really be a problem, since it's so obscure. Any combo ideas?

MoonAgeDaydreamer, thank you for reminding me of this name!Odessa was a main character in a video game that I was and I guess still am obsessed with, so I have very good associations with it. If you want to know more about that character, who will be the only person I ever associate with the name, google "Odessa Silverberg." Anyway I don't think many people in the states realize it is also a city name.I love the combo Odessa Elizabeth.

What's the video game? Is it very well known? The only time I've ever come across it in reference to the place was while reading "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich." It's a very good book, but most people who read it do it grudgingly, and probably wouldn't recognize the word.

The video game is Suikoden, and I don't think it is hardly known at all, especially here in the states - but still one of my favorites.

I had never heard of a place with the name Odessa until I saw this post. I don't think it would really be a problem. Combos? Well, here goes:Odessa Violet
Odessa Amabel
Odessa May(sorry, not in much of a combo mood, but I hope these suggestions are helpful)

It has always been a GP of mine. I don't mind about the city. I'm lost for combos, but it's really late here, lol.

It's a pretty word but all I can think about is the Odessa Massacre during WWII. =(

I like Odessa Mairead, but how is Mairead pronounced? I imagine it as "May-reed," but given Sean, Siobhan and other Irish names, I doubt that I'm correct. Your sig cracks me up.

Mairead is pronounced something like ma-RAYD.
