What type of person do you picture when you picture someone named Kassandra?

I'm writing a story where one of the main character's name is Kassandra. I would like for you to tell me what personality traits do you associate with the name Kassandra.

If it helps her full name is Kassandra Beaudelaire

Update:

Thanks to everyone who replied It really gave me a lot of things to think about.

One of the things I thought was changing the last name to Hellsing.

Does that make a different on how you picture this character

Kassandra Hellsing.

    Wow - I am surprised by the other responses because I imagined a gothic chic whom always wears black, too much make-up, dabbles in witchcraft, and only gets along with her grandma because she still treats Kass like she is 5.

    Beaudelaire - seems like "big liar" to me

    Hellsing - says it all

    as far as I am concerned either name will fit my profile.

    I see a very kind and gentle person...someone who is nice to everyone and never gets mad....she is fun though, and is like...the "life of the party" lol :)

    the last name Beaudelaire is hard to pronounce and makes Kassandra seem stuck upish and although Kassandra may seem sweet, she is also very mean(because of last name)

    hope this helps you! good luck on your book! :)

    Kassandra Beaudelaire sounds like an intelligent and somewhat mischievous girl. I would see her as being book-smart, but a little naive with people. She sounds like more of a watcher than participator - not a wallflower, just more of the type to really notice what is going on around her - she sees the small details that others miss.

    It sounds like she has an upper-class family, perhaps speaks more than one language - and plays a musical instrument. ;)

    I love the name! These are some personality traits I see if I picture a Kassandra:

    -Class, elegance, style, taste

    -Sophistication, intelligence, someone well-read and well-rounded

    -Someone charming, delightful, with a clean sense of humor

    -Can be the life of the party without getting drunk and taking off her top

    If I were you, I would SERIOUSLY consider naming your child that. The name rolls of the tongue, there isn't much room for teasing as a child, and the name is gold.

    What I picture is a tall, statuesque bronze-skinned woman with slanted eyes, and long, raven black hair, with an attitude that suggests that she comes from nobility. Almost haughty/regal-like. Change the last name though, it doesn't fit. I would suggest Kassandra Carsomyr, or Kassandra Beau-Claire. Hoped it helped!

    Alexandra - effortless and smart yet perhaps somewhat quiet and shy. I imagine her a brunette :) yet she's prettier than she thinks and all and sundry likes her because she's sweet. Tracey - Blondie and impolite and tremendously and a snob. maximum known woman in college. yet Alexandra is prettier than Tracey yet Alexandra has low self-worth. wish I helped :)
