[Opinions] WDYTO Astraea??
I personally think its a beautiful sounding name, with lovely meaning and namesake, although there aren't really any good nicknames. What middle names would you pair with it

I like it. I think Aster is an alright nickname, though I think its a bit too masculine The lack of nicknames aren't a problem. Some people love a nickname others, like myself, don't care muchI think something pretty like Violet or Rose as a middle

It’s lovely and has nice imagery, but that is a really unfortunate first syllable. I can’t get fully behind Astrid for the same reason. I feel like bullies might latch onto that one pretty easily. It also reminds me of “gone astray”.

I think that's only a problem within the US. I had to think hard about what you meant by that myself

It's a name I want to love but I can't seem to shake the similarity to ashtray and Australia. You probably don't have that issue. :DAstraea Lily

I also think it's a beautiful name. I wouldn't use it as I live in Australia and there could be teasing with the Aussie slang 'Straya. But I could just be overthinking it. I'll edit in some middle names later.
