I just finished reading the story "Miss Grief" by Constance Fenimore Woolson. It's a pretty decent short story. The primary female character is name Aaronna because her father was "so disappointed" that she wasn't a boy "he gave me as near as possible the name he had prepared for a boy-Aaron." I'm not really a fan of the name, although it looks...interesting. I would've thought that if you wanted to name your daughter the female equivalent of Aaron, you would've just gone with Erin. I dont think they have similar meanings and origins, but they sound...almost identical (at least they do when everyone I know says it).

another interesting name from the story is Ethelind. I think it's prettier than just plain Ethel, but I'm not a fan
