Here's a funny story: My parents named my oldest sister Svetlana, but that's a pagan name (goddess of light), so she was baptized Photinia.

The Orthodox Church actually has a saint named Photinia, a woman who was "thrown by the sea" onto an island where she spent the rest of her life in fasting and prayer.
