Siora
I'm watching a movie about Boudica, the Celtic warrior queen. Her daughters in the movie are Isolda and Siora. I'm familiar with Isolda, but can anyone tell me anything about Siora?

According to an Irish-English dictionary, the word siora in Irish means "afterlife."
There is a slight change of meaning in Scottish Gaelic - the dictionary I found lists sior as meaning 'continual, perpetual, ever' and siorraidh as meaning 'eternal'.
