A bit dramatic, though I'd say rather tastefully so. I think it'd be a kind of hit and miss with each individual reader, but nonetheless strong overall. The use of the word "destiny" gives it the sense of a period piece, whether fantasy or historical, but definitely not a modern tale.

Reminds me of the title of a movie: Blue eyes-- starring JLo. I'm guessing romance. Maybe the eyes belong to a character under a drug haze. You never know. I'd at least read the blurb, but only because I like romance and romance titles are always a bit cheesy.

Makes me think of an action/sci-fi story, set in a dystopian future. There are very strict rules and laws in place, but one person out of line will crack the regime, and the cracks will spread until they shatter.

Either realistic romance/drama or dystopia. Something soft and focused on character relationships or some absolutely terrible virus. Mostly thinking of the horror-esque elements because of titles such as "28 days later".

I'd defiantly pick it up off the shelf to see what it was about. There is an array of things it could be about. Something religious comes to mind. Or perhaps the main character discovers that he is somehow involved in some large prophesy.

Makes me think of a romance with a hint of old timey-ness thrown in with "Beloved". The name title also makes me think of fantasy in a way, because of the name. I would definitely take a look at it. Although I am not sure if the title benefits anything from Beloved. "Adonia" by itself is gripping and easy to remember. Just clicks with me.

The title has a mythological ring to it, mainly because of "legend". It could almost be the title of an actual Greek myth. I love it!

I think about a young child who has imaginary friends, and has little adventures with them. Then suddenly, the imaginary world is attacked.

Or maybe it's about a teenager who was so desperate to fit in, they created a group of friends so they wouldn't be as lonely.

Romeo and Juliet first came to mind, so perhaps a love story. But then again I also feel like it could be a story about a murderous girl named Juliet.

I do like one word titles, but 'last' seems too much of an common, indefinite word to use on it's own. I get the impression it's something dramatic like the last of a race, but what lingers in my mind is 'last night? last week?' Maybe 'The Last' or another synonym might be better.

I find this intriguing. Is it about a child's doll? Is the main character regarded as a baby doll by his/her parents/friends/others? What makes them/it so perfect? The title alone draws me in to find answers to these questions!

Fascinating. Has a fantasy touch but not over doing it. Asks: Who is deceived? Is there a mythical sword involved?

I don't feel like I really understand this title, and while I'm likely to pick it up just to read the description, it doesn't give me a certain feeling -- and the only "feeling" I have on how it might integrate into a story is that very metaphor.

I'm biase with this opinion since I already know what it's about, but we can pretend that's not the case. Judging purely from the word, I'd guess it'd either be a realistic novel about someone balancing some inner quality or an conflict or a fantasy about the same thing,
