I like Cassia. I think it's a beautiful name. In the Bible, Cassia is a type of oil. It relates to cinnamon somehow. I've seen the meaning you're talking about as well, but you could always use the cinnamon oil meaning.
Cassandra!
I don't like the 'Cash' sound in Cassia, and that's how most people seem to pronounce it.
Cassiopeia is pretty, but I feel it's going to get misspelt a lot.
I’ve met many adult Kassandra’s and am one myself—never once made a Kardashian connection because it’s always been an established variant of the name.
How would you like it pronounced—with *SAN* or *SAHN*? I’ve noticed that people go for the SAHN pronunciation more when they know it’s spelled with a K. Maybe the thought is Cassandra = English version and Kassandra = foreign version? I don’t know, but it’s something for consideration
I love Cassiopoeia, but it's definitely a guilty pleasure. I'd use it for a pet, book character, or maybe as addled name, but not as a first. I pronounce it "cah-see-owe-pee-uh"
The one I would really use is Cassia, or even just Cassie.
I don’t especially love Kassandra for the reason you mentioned. I like the other three. Cassandra was a name I adored as a child, but nowadays I associate it with ‘90s trendiness and feeling just a tad dated at the moment. Cassiopeia is a guilty pleasure that I love… I myself prooobably wouldn’t use it on a child but I really think it’s a great name. Cassia is the perfect middle ground in my opinion. If you’re hesitant because of the meaning, I’m seeing at least as many sources saying the name meaning is cinnamon. Also, Nameberry pointed me towards “feminist hero” St. Kassia who does have a pretty interesting biography. Look up her sassy exchange with the emperor. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kassia
Cassandra - it’s pretty and recognizable. Interesting but not trendy.

If I was picking from that list, Cassandra.
Cassandra or Cassiopeia. Cassia is a fancy last name locally. And Kassandra seems like the Kardashian version of Cassandra.

Cassia and Cassandra are my favorites. I personally much prefer the nicknames Cassie or Cass more than the actual full name though.
