I’m still struggling on a water faerie name for my nosferatu novel. After researching Irish, Celtic, and Scottish water names (she’s a selkie), I started using “Coventina” just so I could stop typing [name] every time she shows up! But it’s not ringing the right bells for me. :\
While indexing names for my church calling, I came across the name “Scythia,” which I may try, but…*shrug*
