WDYT of Morgiana

As for names from 1001 Nights/Arabian Nights, I like Scheherazade better, but I think this name has a certain appeal as well

I like Morgana pretty well, but the "Morgee" sound kills Morgiana for me.

It looks like a misspelling of Morgana, but I guess it's okay.

Hi !!!

I much prefer مرجان (Marjan) currently meaning "coral" in Arabic and Persian.

I also prefer Morgana, Morrigan and Muirgen if I mean a Western name.

One of my favourite books is by a woman called Marjane Satrapi. I love the book and I love her name.

Hi !!!

I saw both the films adapted from her works Persepolis and Poulet aux prunes.

If you like the genre I suggest you The Breadwinner adapted in 2017 from a work by Deborah Ellis.

P.S. Here the protagonist is named پروانه Parvana (or Parvaneh) meaning "butterfly" in Persian.
