Arachne

OMG so pretty!

I love this! ♥ Spiders are my spirit animal. This name sounds mystical and ancient. Interesting. Beautiful.

A palpable force of a name. I love Greek myths and spiders, so I would love it if I randomly met a female named Arachne. However, it's a name that would probably be hard for other people to conceptualize at introduction- meaning that they would probably have to hear it multiple times and then forget it anyway later. Also, it has the teasing potential on sound alone- meaning that even if other people didn't know its meaning, Arachne could be teased for having a great "rack" or having a horrible "rack" that hits her "knees." I hate even thinking of these things. They don't figure into my like/ dislike of a name. This is one of my guilty pleasure names for myself, should I ever change my first name, but I don't know if I could use it for anything other than a middle name for a child, even though it's fabulous.

What an unusual and interesting name. I like it a lot but I would never give it to a child though due to the teasing potential.

Despite my hatred of spiders, I find Arachne to be a very cool, very unusual name. Perfect as a stage name for a hard rock/heavy metal chick.

I do like that there is a story to this name instead of just a meaning, but as mentioned above, the association with spiders is enough for nightmares.

I like the sound and story behind Arachne, though I'd never use it, because I'm arachnophobic. But it is a really cool and witchy name.

I hate spiders and am very afraid of them, so I would never use this as a name!

I love Greek mythology names, and Arachne is one of my current favorites. Its sound, its look, the meaning, the myth about Arachne.

It sounds so strong, and yet I don't think I'd be very comfortable with the name, purely because I'm a huge arachnophobe! Just hearing the name would remind me of spiders.

I actually love the name Arachne. I think it is beautiful and unusual, and kinda cool that it means spider. I love names from Greek Mythology, especially ones that have a "ch" that makes a "k" sound, like Arachne, Echo, and Psyche. Those would be sweet names for sisters!

I hate this name, not only because big spiders are scary, but it makes me think of the word acne.
