while I do think of Octavia as being very feminine, I also think of her as being very reserved, even rather cool, but with a hidden passionate streak. I think of her as a lovely librarian, wearing wool skirts and silk blouses buttoned to the chin, tiny glasses on her nose and her hair in a bun, who, when the library closes, really lets her hair down, if you take my meaning. ;-)

I love Octavia, and prefer it as an excellent but sadly underused alternative to the enormously popular Olivia.
