Thoughts? Initial reactions?
I'm on record as being a big fan of names with ph in them (Euphemia, Phoebe, Philomena, etc.), and this one caught my eye when it popped up in the credits of a Pixar movie. The mythological character is no role model, but I'm intrigued.

Are those still a thing? I thought they were illegal.

I think you're trying a bit too hard to be unique. As you mentioned, there are other Ph names that aren't so odd and are perfectly fine and not overused.
Save that one for the family pet.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!
see siggy...
This. She's awful too.
This!
Oops! I should have noticed your siggy, Keri Marie!
Thanks for the heads up about the Real Housewives ? I had no idea.

Of course she is, aren't they all???
don't prefer.
i went to school with a girl named pharra ("fare-uh".
I prefer most "ph" names with an "f"- Sofia, Rafael, etc. and this one just doesn't seem right with a capital F at the beginning, so that would disqualify it for me.
Didn't she kill herself anyway?

Yeah. After lusting after her stepson and then accusing him of rape when he turned her down. Like I said, not a role model.

My first thought is the woman from Real Housewives of Atlanta : )
I do think it is a pretty name though.
