[Opinions] Perpetua

For some reason that I can't pin down, I've become rather fond of the name Perpetua in the last week or so. Does anyone have any combo ideas? (Perpetua can be either the first or middle name.)
Also, how do you pronounce it? The site says per-PE-twah, but that sounds really weird to me. I've always said it as per-PET-u-ah.

This has been a long time love of mine. I am afraid that it will get popular due to Bridget Jones, and I have seen more than one in the BAs lately. I say (per-PET-choo-ah).Perpetua Lily comes to mind.

Perpetua reminds me of the meddlesome old co-worker in "Bridget Jones' Diary."It's all right; dynamic, but not something I would use.What about:Perpetua Alice
Perpetua Leigh
Perpetua Wallis
Perpetua Mary
Perpetua Grace
Perpetua Iris
Perpetua Verity
