My youngests daughters middle name
Yani5688: i love this name! it's romantic and enigmatic. i've always fancied the thought of naming my future daughters after the seasons. Amaryllis (belladonna lily, from the spanish word "amarysso" which means "to sparkle") Yvaine and nickname her "Winter". For some reason, it evokes a feeling of "hope". Like shining brightly inspite of the surrounding darkness. And when you think about it, travellers use stars so they wouldnt get lost. So the name also stimulates the feeling of being guided back to a place you can always return to. <3
