Help[Opinions] WDYTO Syntyche?
Being Ancient Greek, it's pronounced SIN-tə-kee, and means "common fate". I really like its meaning, and the sound interests me, but since I am not the keenest on the spelling, do you think there is a better way to spell Syntyche?

I don't like it, and altering the spelling will only make matters worse. This way, it might be weird and ugly-sounding, but at least it's got a meaning and a history, alter the spelling and you'll just have a random cluster of letters.

Half ditto
I agree that the name is a lost cause, but unlike you, I don't really like the sound. Syntyche looks and sounds like some technical term.

Or a great name for a new computer virus.
It does sound a bit technical or even medicinal like Imogen. Maybe that is some of the appeal right there ;)

I think if you spell it any other way, it might look strange and/or unrecognizable as Ancient Greek. I mean, I know it's transliterated, but there is kind of an accepted transliterated spelling after all of these years.
You could try:
Syntyke (which looks like little tykes or something)
Sintikee (no words for this one..)
Syntiki (like...tiki lounge)
...and to be honest, it just keeps getting worse. So, personally...I don't think there's a better spelling for Syntyche. Sorry. =/
