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.

Daija
“A modern American coinage, likely a variant spelling of Deja, derived from the French déjà as in déjà vu meaning "already seen" — from the Latin jam (already). It may also be influenced by the Yoruba name Deja or by other African American naming traditions that create new forms through phonetic creativity. The name emerged in American usage in the late twentieth century.”
Silvana
“The Italian and Spanish feminine form of Silvanus, from the Latin silva meaning "wood, forest". Silvanus was the Roman god of the forest and countryside, protector of fields and woodland boundaries, a rural deity associated with the wild spaces that bordered human cultivation. The feminine form Silvana carries the forest's ancient associations of mystery and natural power.”
Jillian
“An elaborated form of Jill, itself a medieval diminutive of Juliana, the feminine form of Julian, from the Latin Julianus derived from Julius. Julius was the name of the ancient Roman gens Julia, possibly related to the Greek Ioulos meaning "downy-bearded" or derived from the divine ancestor Iulus (Ascanius), son of Aeneas. The Gens Julia claimed descent from the goddess Venus.”
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.”
Sylvester
“Sylvester is a masculine name derived from the Latin silvestris meaning "of the forest" or "wooded," from silva meaning "forest" or "wood." It was the name of Pope Sylvester I (314–335 AD), who reigned during the conversion of Emperor Constantine the Great, and Saint Sylvester's feast day on December 31st gives the name its association with New Year's Eve in many European countries.”
Aubree
“A modern variant of Aubrey, from the Old French Auberi, from the Old High German Alberich composed of alb meaning "elf" and rich meaning "power, ruler" — thus "elf ruler" or "king of the elves". 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.”
