Character Name
Cesidia
Cesidia Cesidia is a name deeply embedded in the local Latin identity of Ciociaria — the ancient region of Lazio south of Rome that preserves some of the oldest continuous naming traditions on the Italian peninsula. Its rarity outside this region gives it the quality of a name that belongs entirely to place, inseparable from the landscape of Latin hills and the memory of the Roman countryside. A character named Cesidia carries this intense rootedness, a sense of identity as something grown from particular soil rather than chosen.

Alberich was the name of the dwarf king in Germanic mythology who guarded the treasure of the Nibelungs. The feminine spelling Aubree emerged in twentieth-century American usage.”
Adrian
“Adrian is derived from the Latin Hadrianus, referring to someone from the city of Hadria in northern Italy (modern Adria), whose name may come from the Illyrian or Venetic word adur meaning "sea" or "water." The name became prominent through the Roman Emperor Hadrian, who built Hadrian's Wall in Britain, and through Pope Adrian I. It is widely used in Polish, Czech, Slovak, and other Slavic countries.”
Gaylord
“From the Old French gaillard meaning "lively, merry, bold" — a complimentary medieval adjective for a vigorously cheerful person. The word entered Middle English as a surname and eventually became a given name in America, primarily in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The medieval French root connects it to a tradition of courtly names praising physical and temperamental vitality.”
