Yay, comments! :)Desideria -I had to really focus to prononce this. No thanks.
Desideria was a Swedish 19th century queen, who's rather well-known, so there wouldn't be any trouble with that here. :)Vendela -sounds a lot like "vendetta" to me.
Haha, I've had non-Swedes say this make them think of Spanish or Italian "vende la" ("sell her") before, but vendetta is a new one. Unlike vendetta, the emphasis is on the first syllable here. ;)Prosper -LOVE IT
People generally seem very split on this - either they hate it or they love it. Glad to see you belong to the latter!

Okay, if Desideria is well known there, then it does sound kind of cool.
