Help[Opinions] Re: Sapphira?
in reply to a message by clayishtwine
Sapphira is very nice--it has an aesthetically pleasing spelling and sound. I used to prefer Safira, hands down, but I like both spellings now.
I associate it with an absolutely gorgeous choral piece called "Someone Will Remember Us." It's a very new piece--it was "unveiled," as it were, in a choral festival held at my college last year--and the words to the song were written by the ancient poet Sappho. I'm not sure if they only used one Sapphic fragment (namely "I tell you/someone will remember us/in the future.") or several, but it's beautiful and bittersweet. :) I love it.
I see Saffy, Fia, and Fira being the most natural nicknames. Sassy, Sira, Fifi, Pippi, and Affy could all also work.

A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.
