Just in case you're genuinely curious..
"...what is Belrose?" Belrose is my dh's deceased grandmother's mn. I think actually it was a surname farther back.
"...what is Aster?" An aster is a star-shaped flower. I like Esther (which means star), but don't like alliterated combos (Emmaline Esther), so I subbed in the flower name.
I love this game, b/c I can gauge people's responses to some of my "out there" combos. :o) DH hates anything non-traditional (his name's John, so we'll have to forgive him, lol) and BtN is the only place I can get honest and varied opinions. ;o) Thanks again for playing!
