2 preguntas for tu to answer
1. do tu think the names are appropriate for each character?
2. is there any other characters tu would like me to look up for lista # 2?

XxLalasaysxX Cool, I do think that the majarity of the names go with the characters, esp. Flora and Stella. Maybe for list #2 you could do the teachers, pixies, and selkies?

XxLalasaysxX Oh and Riven's name too goes with the definition, but more like tear a-heart. ( refering to the way he treated Musa in season 4) ^_^

zanhar1 If you ever do one for the names of the planets; Zienth is basically the highest point in the sky. Great article by the way, very informative.

Princess-Flora thanks @XxLalasaysxX and @zanhar1
