Carina - like it
Orion - love it
Sirius - like sirius black? i like it but too prone to teasing to use
Reena - eh, okay. i knew a girl in HS named reena so this is name has a certain image for me
Ceres - like it
Hermes - isn't this a clothing designer? nms
Hesperos - don't like it
Melina - nms
Aries
Kira - nice, but doesn't stand out among all the other k-names, like kaylee, kyli, etc.
Gideon - okay, sounds overly religious for my taste

Carina -- pretty similar to that movie with whoopie goldberg and ray liotta: corrina, corrina
Orion -- not a big fan of it, i could see that kid being teased
Sirius -- nope
Reena -- that's alright, not like "oh my gee that's the best" about it though
Ceres -- interesting. pronounce it for me, then i can really decide i suppose
Hermes -- like the brand?
Hesperos -- eh. nope.
Melina -- pretty pretty
Aries -- wow. a zodiac sign?
Kira -- pretty, pretty

My name is Orian. My parents changed the spelling to "a" to avoid me potentially being teased. (They thought it was too close to "onion"). I've always liked it, and it seems to always get the comments from females, and that's a good thing. Apparently, Orion is a common Japanese name. I like the feminine version better, Oriana, pronounced or-e-ah-na.

Yeah, I've never met anyone named Orian or even Orion before you, nor even heard of anyone with such a name - and I've always used it in my writing and such, and I really think it's a lovely name. :D

Thank you. I want to know more about your writing.

haha you're welcome :D the writing in which I usually use the name "Orion" is of the fantasy/adventure sort - for example, in the last tale featuring Orion, he was a Prince who fell in love with a common girl, and he fled the castle and his evil father with an assassin/protector at his side to go after his love and hopefully save her from grave peril. He gets to wield a sword a good deal, and he's very bold, confident, and determined. ^_^

Reena - pretty

Hermes - same as above
Hesperos - same as above
Melina - i am really starting to love this name. pretty and unique

I like the names Orion and Kira. Are any of these other names mythology-influenced?
