Yay, someone used Minerve! I like Minerve Indira.

Not sure if it was intentional, but Ariadne Fidelia and Clio Dominga both have super religious meanings; I think they'd be interesting in a sibset.

My favorite is Clio Mehetabel. I wouldn't have thought to put those together.

Thanks. :)

Penelope Carnellia

Lakshmi Apolline

Velma Kassidora (spoken or read with accent on the "i" in Kassidora)

Prunella Gardenia (this reminds me of Swinburne's The Grapes of Prosperine) https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45288/the-garden-of-proserpine); however, Prunella Gardenia is actually the opposite in tone to Swinburne's work

Hestia Kiera (spoken or read with accent on the /e/ in Kiera)

Amalthea Marigold

Iphigenia Niobe (O malheureuse Iphigénie) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlFfkqIjnUw

I think my favorite's Lakshmi Apolline.

Prunella Gardenia makes me think of pruning...floral in an active way....it also seems very purple/green/white to me, which are suffragette and genderqueer colors...

Thanks. :)

I love the name Prunella Gardenia - but, only on paper; I would never use a combination like that in real life.

I wouldn't know the meaning(s?) of colors, save Shakespearean (style) use - and popular specifics as with the color of roses-n'stuff. However, I was raised catholic, and though I've no faith, but was in church & catechism weekly - and at every holiday- so perhaps this does mean that I know meanings of colors, after all?

If you'd please be so kind, though - did you specifically list both Prunella & Gardenia wondering whether someone would match them? If you don't respond, I'll consider that to indicate "none of my business" - (smile).

However, I like the name "Lakme". I understand the meaning might be tend to dissuade others, but I enjoy the name's sound well enough to think past it.

Nope. They're just two flower names I think are interesting.

Prunella's in a different group than most of the other plants because it has an el in it; they started out semi-organized, but the groups ended up being kinda arbitrary.
