For some reason can't find a name for her.

Beautiful, as always! I read some of the previous comment, and I think Cybele is a perfect name for her! And the butterfly could definitely represent the butterfly effect then!

Regardless, I think your work is gorgeous!

to me she has a cultured look to her, if she were human. Maybe not a queen or princess, but maybe a wealthy merchant's or artisan's daughter. Or maybe she is of nobility. her name might ought to reflect this. A name like Anna or Celeste perhaps?

My first instinct was also 'Aurora', but now I'm not so sure. She makes me think of both Autumn (her hair) and Spring (her clothes and wings).
and looking closer her blue eyes could be reflective of winter. I'm sure we could find summer in there somewhere, So maybe her name should reflect the turn of the seasons?

How about 'Cybele' she was a greek Earth goddess, similar to Gaia, but more related to the cycle of life rather than personifying the land itself.

Thank you so much! I like the name a lot! Fairy of the changing seasons...hm, I should think about it. If she is going to have such a meaningful name, than butterfly she is playing with will become a symbol. But what it can symbolize?

lucypants In reply to dreamleaf [2007-07-26 22:39:47 +0000 UTC]

there is always that idea about the butterfly flapping its wings on one side of the world causing a storm on the other - it is meant to illustrate the interconnectedness of things, and I think that is appropriate for a fairy representing changing seasons.

This is a beautiful creation - congratulations.

Based on this I don't think you need to "try" very hard... you're already quite accomplished!

She's lovely! For some reason the name Aurora struck me...maybe it's the red hair.

Thank you! Aurora is a beautiful name but I imagine Aurora differently, something lighter and more fluttering. Goddess of the dawn!
