I am so very glad that you love her, as you can tell that I most certainly do too!! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :yellow_heart: She is [name_m]Breton[/name_m] in origin to the best of my knowledge, as the name comes from a [name_m]Breton[/name_m] phrase referring to a semi-legendary saint who is sometimes called [name_f]Nolwenn[/name_f], as well! :slightly_smiling_face:
