 She officially has a name

it took a while, but it often does. after much deliberation and mind-changing, my baby girl’s name is "sini indelwin." sini is finnish and means "blue;" indelwin is elvish and means "lily." a lovely name for an equally lovely iguana:

i’ve always been name-obsessive. i have a list. with this girl, i had a couple things in mind and something that started with an "s" that i wasn’t sure of, so i went looking online. i had a female iguana named lily who died a couple years back and i knew i wanted the baby’s middle name to be lily. a friend wrote me that "indelwin" was elvish for lily. i’m a sucker for all things elven.

even so, i had to wait to meet the iguana; she might have had a different idea altogether. i had my beardie named before i went to get him, and the next morning he informed me of what his name really was (yes, i communicate with my pets). so usually i like to bring them home and get to know them for a minute. i had donatello for a month before i figured out what his name was. but then, i brought home a baby sulcata whose name was penelope the moment i laid eyes on her. it just depends. the pet always has the final say.

as sini grows, she should acquire some blue coloration, so she has a name to honor both lily and herself, and she seems to like it.

It’s is a lovely name! I have a thing for all things Elvish myself! ;-)

Try singing the Song of Galadriel to her.
