Ooh, I love a new name! Could you link the info you found on its meaning/origin? I’d love to read about it. Loving the above suggestion of lanira [name_f]Daphne[/name_f].
I actually dont know how to do that buuuuuuut just a simple search will do… sorry if that sounded rude
On Wikipedia, you can find an Ianeira listed as a mythological Nereid (Nereids - Wikipedia) and there’s also an Ianeira listed as an Oceanid but only on the Greek version of Wikipedia, not the English one. You can probably find mention of the Oceanid Ianeira on other sites, though! It’s pronounced ee-AH-nee-ra in Greek.
Ιt’s hard to find an origin, but the three sources I found say: “lady of the Ionians”, “Ionian”, and “desire strongly”. I could also see it meaning “dream for/desire a cure” from Ia- (iaomai = cure) and -neira (neiromai = desire/dream), but I was never a great student in my Ancient Greek class Either way I’m not finding the meaning of “enchantress” anywhere.
So that website lied to me but that meaning is ten times cooler
I am loving Ianira [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]! And I think the nickname [name_f]Nira[/name_f] would be literally adorable
