How do you pronounce it? At first glance, I'd say rih-NO-ah. Is that right?

I kind of like it---reminds me of the name Rona.

The offcial pn is Rhin -o -a

According to my research, it comes from Lenore which means light in French.

Would you take out points if i'd tell you it's a videogame character's name?

Haha, seeing as some of my favorite names come from books (i.e. Saffron) I don't think its a big deal. Depends on how popular the videogame is, though. If its really popular and would be associated with the game, then I wouldn't use it. I've never heard it before but then again, I'm not big on videogames....

Well, Final Fantasy VIII is kind of a big deal, so I guess it won't go unnoticed for long. :blink: Despite that fact, what do you think of the name itself?

Besides the fact I wasn't entirely sure how to say it at first, I like it, especially how it looks. You said it was Japanese? I'm really big on names from different heritages---I love Irish names especially

For what I've heard/ read; the Japanese sort of "made it up" for the character. Rinoa is how they'd pronounce "Lenore" in Japanese.

I like it. I think it would go well paired with a simple name like Grace or Faith

Haahaha! Don't worry, Zayda... I also thought of Rhino when i first heard it. But then the name just grew on me.

Ash, Rinoa Hope is amazing. Why wouldn't you use it?
