That's such a pretty word as well! Reminds me of the tradition of naming the Ugly Sisters in Cinderella pantomimes after awful but pretty sound things... Asphyxia's one that springs to mind as it was the first time I'd heard that word as a kid (thankfully!).
Here's my most recent one:
Sidereal - of or relating to the stars.
Just started a book about stories in the stars and that's a new one for me. 4 syllables: si-de-re-al.
