Re: Auryn
in reply to a message by Lumia
I don't have the book, just saw the film, and I answer mostly because nobody else answered so far:
I tried to find any hint about Auryn being first the name of the Childlike Empress, in English and also in German (where the information on the Internet is somewhat more detailed, the book being originally in German), but did not find something.
I am therefore rather skeptic.

Thank you very much for your effort and your time.
Your informations match perfectly my informations (from Internet and from some fantastic literature readers) and the German point is very valuable.
Definitely, I think that the affirmation regarding Auryn as Childlike Empress's name was just a bluff to "justify" her choice.

I read the book (in german) quite some time ago, but don't remember anything like that. The whole thing about the Empress is the fact that she does not have a name and needs the reader to give her one. The Auryn is her "sign" and not her name.
And of course, Auryn is not a real name in Germany. However I found a few homepages stating Auryn as an australian male name ...
