Mine is Hungarian, and means Blue Fern. I have worn it for 12 years.
I invented an alternative for the places where I couldn't use long names (f.e. on irc), it is Phylix, from the latin word Filix (meaning fern), but with fancy "greekish" letters (that time I begun the uni, and we all had hard time learning the the originating from latin and greek). But just as Valarya, I had to realize that it is a valid first name, and since the short user names are rarely needed, I write as Phyllitis (it is a kind of fern).
Well... ferns and wolves are my weakness
