Thanks!  LOL, actually Andromeda is only my middle name.  I have a 
sister Athena and a brother Ulysses... and a father who liked 
mythology.  I enjoyed finding Andromeda in HP and was relieved that 
she wasn't one of the nasty members of the Black family.  Maybe 
because the name does have a ...nice... sound about it.

And I named my first daughter Emma, after her greataunt Emmaline.

Fun, fun,
Andromeda
