Eudora. I've heard a girl being addressed as Eudora and I think it sounds nice.
Eustacia starts out "you stay," the way I say it, and that would wreck it even if not for Eustachian tubes.

Eudora

I'm fond of a few *dora names.

I don't like Stacy, despite knowing a really great one. Maybe because it reminds me of "stasis"? It just sounds unpleasant to me.
Eustacia looks like eustatic or eustacy, which isn't negative really, but makes it feel less namey to me.

Eudora

I’m not as big a fan of how Eustacia sounds, whilst I love most -dora names. I prefer Eudora’s meaning too.

Eudora! Eustacia has too many names I don't like (Eustace, Stacy, Staci, Stacia, etc.)

I prefer Eudora. The meaning is nicer, imho, and I just like the nickname Dora more than Stacie.

Eudora but neither is great on a real child tbh.

Eudora

Eudora, I guess, though I don't like it much.
Eustacia, I'd have to used Stacy, and it's too nick-namey.

I think Eustacia is prettier, but it reminds me of Eustachian tubes, which is just a weird thing to think of when dealing with a human name. So I will vote Eudora.

Which makes me wonder why Eustachian tubes are so-called.Named after someone?

Oops I meant to post to the OP. But apparently they're named for a 16th Century antagonist whose surname was Eustachi

Eudora

I prefer Eudora because I love Dora and "-dora" names. However, I also love Eustacia.
