What do you think of the name Athanasia for a girl?

Athanasia (Ath-en-asia) is a saint name, and personally seems like a wink and a nod to Anastasia without being so commonly known. I wouldn't use it as a first name, maybe a middle, because middle should always be interesting.

    No one will know how to spell it or pronounce it. And it sounds like anesthesia. And euthanasia.

    I don't really like it, it sounds like euthanasia to me. I prefer Anastasia.

    As a middle name it wouldn't be too bad since most people wouldn't hear it anyways, I mean it'd be better to use as a middle name with guilty pleasures and everything.

    Good Luck!

    Middle name is great, but not first. My name is Athanasia Demetra, and as soon as I turn 18, I'm switching them. I'm already using Demetra instead of Athanasia for school
