Nature and spiritual names

  1. Sirona
    • Talitha
      • Origin:

        Aramaic
      • Meaning:

        "little girl"
      • Description:

        Talitha appears in the Bible as words Jesus says to awaken a young girl whose parents feared she was dead. It has been used in the US since colonial times. Talitha is also the name of two stars in Ursa Major, where it's related to the Arabic word for "third." Talitha definitely makes a fresh spin on Tabitha or Talisa.
    • Tanith
      • Origin:

        Phoenician
      • Meaning:

        "serpent lady"
      • Description:

        Name of the Phoenician deity who was the patron of Carthage, goddess of the moon, and a fertility figure. Variations include Tanit, Tanis, and Tanitha. The name is frequently misinterpreted to be an Irish name meaning "estate." Despite this august heritage, the original form of the name is a bit lispy for use in modern English-speaking lands.
    • Violet

        "willow tree"

    • Wolf
      • Origin:

        Animal name or diminutive of Wolfgang, German
      • Meaning:

        " traveling wolf"
      • Description:

        Wolf is a name with a split personality. It can be seen as one of the fierce animal names, like Fox and Bear and Puma, with a touch of the werewolf, or it can be viewed as a quieter, Wolf Blitzer kind of name, fairly common in German (where is pronounced Vulf) and Jewish families, sometimes as a short form of Wolfgang, or even Wolfram or Wolfhart.
