Where do names get their meanings? Better yet, how do invented names in the movies or characters in books get their meanings? Our baby girl has an invented name that came from a movie and it already has a meaning. How does one go about doing that? Any and all ideas appreciated. Thanks!

Many names derive from ancient words and phrases. They are not necessarily words anymore, but their roots come from words.
In your daughter’s case, its meaning either comes from the fictional language created for that film, or a spelling of Evoleht which is “the love” spelled backwards! Or alternatively, a combination of Eve and Violet.
