Eirini of Athens is by far my favourite Roman Empress. She's in the Synaxarion, but not Menion, it is a hot topic if she is a saint or not. She is depicted in some iconography aswell (when she is she has a halo.) I find myself in the group of those who do venerate her as a saint. Not a universal saint, but a local saint if you will. I am going to name my daughter Ειρήνη.
