Here are the names of my plants and plans for naming future ones:
My current plants (in order of being bought):
Brim: Short for Brimleigh, a play on Brynleigh from a podcast I used to love and the town I got her from.
Io: Based on Ionantha, her species(Tillandsia Ionantha).
Romeo: I thought the name was cute. His middle name is Celadon.
Esmeralda: I can't remember exactly why I chose this.
Klara: My only cactus. Named for
Klara Soderberg, the lead of my favorite band.
Evander: I've always liked the name
Leonora: As soon as I bought her, I knew she was a
Leonora. I dunno how to describe it.
Shelby: Looks like
Leonora but taller. I don't know why I chose
Shelby, it just seemed fitting.
My future plants:
Catrina:
Will be
Esmeralda's sister. Named for the Mexican Dia De Dos Muertos (symbol? diety? something else? not really sure what La
Catrina is)
Harrison/Harris/Harry: If I get another Tillandsia harrisii (Same thing as Brim is) I will name him
Harry. The name is from harrisii.
All of my cacti will be named after artists. I'm planning to name one
Phoebe (for
Phoebe Bridgers) and one
Miranda,
Manny, or
Lin (for
Lin Manuel Miranda)
