Gorgonia

An ancient name worn by a fourth-century saint: St Gorgonia was the daughter of St Gregory the Elder, and a modest, pious wife who was miraculously cured of injuries and ailments. As a consequence, she is a patron against bodily ills.

Unfortunately, today's parents are unlikely to use a name that sounds so much like (and is derived from) "gorgon", the terrifying snake-headed monster of Greek mythology, as in Medusa.

Pronounced gor-GOH-nee-uh.
