Orabella
Thoughts? Also, Hippolyta?

It’s better than Arabella but I still don’t like it that much.

I love Hippolyta -- it's so baroque and galloping. Orabella is okay, though I think immediately of "horrible." I prefer Orietta.

Orabella makes me think of someone with a cockney accent saying "horrible". 'orrible! It sounds like the kind of name that belongs in the Addams family. Can't you just see an Aunt Orabella Addams? For that reason, I kinda like it. It's very storybook-y. Hippolyta is another one I like for its ridiculousness. I love the sound of Hippolyta. There's also the form Ippolita, which is fun.

Hippolyta makes me think of hippos and horses -> no. Orabella makes me think of "oral" and "oral sex" so also no. Oriana is prettier.

Orabella is interesting (sounds pretty and mysterious), but I prefer Arabella or Oriana. I love Hippolyta (IRL I'd only consider it as a middle name because, well, Hippo).
