General Etihad flight attendant names

Disclaimer: These aren’t the stereotypical names for Etihad flight attendants that scream Etia at first glance. If you want to find a list curated for those, check out my list titled ”Names fit for an Etihad flight attendant” (still need to make it!) This one covers ALL the Etia adjacent names. From the dramatically elegant/theatrical, exotic and international obvious Etia names, names for an Anglo Etia who obviously won’t have some exotic international sounding name, or names that carry some Etia adjacency but aren’t inner circle. 💜
