What do you guys think of Azucena? It's arabic and means "Lily" (at least according to babynamesworld). It's my coworkers name and I've just begun to appreciate it.

My mind immediately goes to the characters of Azucena from the opera Il Trovatore. Which isn't exactly the worst thing in the world, but her name is pronounced Azu-chena which is not the correctly pronunciation of it.

Athuthena or Asusena, depending on the accent. At least that's the Spanish pronunciation.

I like Azu as a nickname.

I would pronounce that Azu-SAY-na..

I think it's pretty, though. :D
