[Opinions] Camina
My husband and I are big fans of the Expanse books and TV series, there is a character named Camina, we finished the 5th season a couple weeks ago and I've had this name in my head since. BTN doesn't have Camina listed, but lists Camena as the goddesses who enable children to sing, which is pleasant. One hesitation is I believe it means "to walk"? in Spanish. Would that a deal breaker for you? What do you think of Camina / Camena?

If it makes you feel better I *think* camina in Spanish can also be poetically translated as something like "path, road, journey" which sounds more meaningful than just plain old "walk". And it also suits that character if I remember her correctly. Edit: I asked a Spanish-speaking friend and it's actually closer to the word for "march", as in "you there, WALK", which REALLY suits her character.Camina is pretty, it reminds me of Pamina, a name from The Magic Flute that I adored as a kid.

not hugely into it or anything but it's alright, I'm neutral about it
