[Opinions] Vara.

In the book I've read, she was listed as a Goddess. From what I've found out, that mightn't be true. With that aside, what do you think of the name?

And does it match:
Embla
Aviva
Signy
Sigrid

Tancred
Alasdair

Also, what other names might I like?

I like it, and I think it goes well with all but Sigrid .. I guess Sigrid is a bit different sounding to me from the others. Not sure why .. somehow it's a bit earthier.

I don't really like any of these names... I like Aviva the best thought.

Vara means stick in Catalan, I don't like it, but it doesn't sound bad.

Embla - Very pretty
Aviva - Lovely sound, and the meaning is such a bonus
Signy - The sound is OK, although I'm not very fond of the "ig" formation ... Good meaning though. I reckon it'll grow on me ... Oxford lists the variant spelling Signi, which I definitely prefer.
Sigrid - The sound does nothing for me - it sounds very hard/grating to my ears - but again a great meaning

Tancred - Probably a little out-there for my taste, but
Alasdair - Incredibly popular for all ages here, especially adult men. I've heard it too often to see its charm ... Otherwise, I'd probably like it.
