Character Name
Sarita
Sarita Sarita carries the dual resonance of Sanskrit sacred rivers and Spanish affectionate diminutive — a name that either invokes the pure, continuous flow of water that sustains all life, or miniaturizes the Hebrew princess with tender endearment. In either tradition it suggests a character whose nature is characterized by movement and nourishment, someone who brings life and continuity to the landscapes and communities she passes through. It suits characters whose calm surface conceals considerable depth and directed force.

Audenico
“A rare Italian masculine name, possibly derived from the Germanic Alderic or Auderic, composed of ald/aud meaning "old, noble, rich" and ric meaning "power, ruler" — thus "old ruler" or "noble and powerful". The name is found in Northern Italian (particularly Piedmontese and Lombardy) historical records and retains an archaic aristocratic quality.”
Mariano
“From the Latin Marianus, a Roman family name derived from Marius, itself likely from Mars, the Roman god of war, or possibly from the Latin mas/maris meaning "male". The name was borne by several Roman generals and became common throughout the Christian world partly through association with the Virgin Mary.”
Jaunita
“A variant spelling of Juanita, the Spanish diminutive of Juana, itself the Spanish feminine form of Juan (John), from the Latin Joannes, from the Greek Ioannes, from the Hebrew Yochanan meaning "God is gracious". The diminutive suffix -ita adds endearment. Juanita is widely used across Latin America and Spain, and among Hispanic communities in the United States.”
Leta
“Probably a short form of names containing the Latin element laeta, meaning "joyful," "glad," or "happy" — as in Leticia (from the Latin laetitia, "happiness" or "joy"). It may also be connected to the Greek Leda, the Spartan queen who was the mother of Helen and the Dioscuri in Greek mythology, or to Lita, a short form of various Romance names. As a standalone name, Leta appeared in American records in the 19th century and carries a vintage Southern warmth.”
Muriel
“Possibly from the Irish Muirgeal, composed of muir meaning "sea" and geal meaning "bright, fair" — thus "bright as the sea". Alternatively it may derive from the Breton Muriel or from an Anglo-Norman form of an Old Irish or Breton name. The name was common in medieval England and Ireland before falling from use and being revived in the nineteenth century.”
Gwendolyn
“From the Welsh Gwendolen, composed of gwen meaning "white, fair, blessed" and dolen meaning "ring, loop, bow" or possibly from the element dolyn meaning "moon". Gwendolen appears in Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae as the first queen of Britain, who after divorcing her husband Locrinus defeated him in battle and ruled alone.”
