Im looking for some help. I looked up the meaning of the name Cassandra and it stated that it meant From the Greek (Kassandra), which possibly meant "Shining upon man" derived from "To shine" and "man" In greek myth Cassandra was a Trojan princess, the daughter of Priam and Hecuba. She was given the gift of prophecy by Apollo, but when she spurned his advances he cursed her so nobady would believe her prophacies. My question is would it be fair to say that she would be considered the "Phophet of Doom"
