HelpRe: Nymphaea & Nenuphar
in reply to a message by ari.
Interesting findings.
To be honest I don't like that Nymph(a) part at all.
But let's play:
Nymphaea Cassandra
Nymphaea Callisto
+ Melissa & Jason
And I do agree Niloufar is prettier that Nenuphar. At first I assumed that Nenuphar is masculine, but, apparently, it's feminine.
I'd definitely shorten it to Nuphar in everyday life))
Nenuphar Odelia
Nenuphar Soraia
+ Ophira & Tadeo

I was actually thinking of Nenuphar as a masculine name!

Yeah, it sounds masculine to my ears! So, I looked it up, and Wiki said, that Nenuphar came from Arabic نِلُوفَر (nilūfar)... And the name Nilufar is feminine.
