I was just thinking about the name Sabium (SAY-bee-uhm). My sister had a stuffed dog when she was little that she named Sabium after something from the never ending story but didn't quite get it right (Sebastian?)
Wdyt?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabium Apparently it was the name of a king. I think it's kind of cool. It looked like a plant genus or something when I first saw it.

(I don't know if there's actually the name Sebastian in the Neverending Story. The main character is Bastian which is probably short for Sebastian but I don't think the book ever clarifies.) I wonder if Sabium came from Xayide somehow?

It reminds me of sabila (aloe) for some reason, but also the Spanish word 'sabio' (wise).

So on one hand it's a rash cream and on the other it's a pretentious name...

It doesn’t sound like a name to me. I don’t like it. Sorry.

I wonder where/who your sister got that name from. The boy from The Never Ending Story was Bastian (Bastian Balthazar Bux). But now I want to reread the book.

Sounds like a chemical or element in the periodic table like calcium or sodium.
