I just got off the phone with a customer service representative named Psyche. Because I will have to call her back with a reference number in the next few days she spelled out her name for me, so I know I wasn't just hearing things.
That is acqually an anciet greek name, from peraphs the most ancient fairy tale ever: The Tale of Eros and Psyche. It is very interesting read^^
But still... ancient greek? Why not Epaminonda?
If I was going to have to name a girl and wanted to pull from ancient mythology, I would probably suggest Inanna as the first name, and either Bast or Sekhmet as a middle name.
Or going with New World mythology, Raven is always an awesome name.

The other day I talked to a customer service representative named Braden. It's scary to think there are now adults named Braden.
This got me thinking about the weird names I have encountered through the years. Here is a list. It excludes anything I know is a foreign name, and any name which is unusual but unlikely to cause problems. Some unusual names are really cool. These are the ones that are weird enough or bad enough to possibly be a handicap to their owners.
In first grade there was a girl named Totsie. I don't know if this was a nickname or not. I just thought it was weird. In third grade there were girls named Wakena and Sonani.
In 5th grade I spent a semester in California and that classroom was a treasure trove of weird names. I swear there was a LaTrina. There were also girls named Toi, Monda, and Saunserae. I'm not sure of the spelling of the last one. There was a boy named Oether. Not sure of that spelling either but it rhymed with odor. There were also some unusual but cool names.
After elementary school there were not a lot of strange names of people I knew personally, other than foreigners. The only ones I remember were girls named Sunshine and Song in high school.
People I have read about: A teen moo named her baby Kushina. Another moo named hers Keetu. Both babies were girls, and I read about both in magazine articles. There was a girl named Youneek in a newspaper story. Another newspaper featured an article about a young woman named Jotrisha. (a combination of Joanne and Patricia?) Some idiot on a naming website bragged about naming her daughter Tayla, her own "creative" spin on Taylor.
Strangers in public: A bank teller named Pashion, and another worker some place I can't remember whose name tag said Garlene. Both were women. Some moo at the mall calling her boy brat Romeo. Another moo at the park calling her toadler a name that sounded like Satan. That was probably a foreign name, but certainly appropriate for a bratty kyd.
