I did end up going with her. May 2 is a day with somewhat more abundant female names and the closest runner up is Donatella Versache for current cultural relevance. (One of my principles is to bias it toward youngest-possible to more likely fall into the awareness of people much younger than me, although a singular giant from centuries back can easily outweigh this.)

And I paired her with The Rock :). (Catherine was always exceptionally fond of a good "rock.")
