Help[Opinions] Théodrade / Théoda
I've recently been rewatching The Tudors, which let me down the dark hole of Wikipedia in googling the historical characters on the show-- I somehow wound up reading up on Ancient Frankish royalty lol Anyway, I found these two girl names (and just added them to the database) and I kind of love them!
What do you all think of them? I especially like Théodrade, it has an old romance feel to it, like it belongs in a Shakespearean play.

To be honest, I like the simple look and feel of Théoda far more than Théodrade.
Théodrade looks lovely but realistically sounds cumbersome unless said with a lilting elvish accent.
Théoda though - totally usable and quite chic.

Haha, I love wikipedia spirals.
Those are actually lovely names! Very regal and medieval, both in a good way. Théodrade sounds particularly magical.
I was clicking through the links to other names like Theodelinde in the user submissions, and I was interested to find that the "Théo" part is from a Germanic name part meaning people, not the Greek for god like in Theodora!

Oh, that's interesting! I'll make a note of that in their entries.

They sound royal and fancy in a god way.
