My Overall Impressions of the Name

Upon first hearing it, I thought it was anything BUT unique. I thought the whole "Heaven spelled backwards" thing was ridiculousy corny and stupid. Its made up, with no true meaning apart from "heaven spelled backwards", yet so many people are quick to rationalize their chosing of this name by making up some silly meaning in a language that doesn't exist ("butterfly" in Slavic, for example), which I think is another strange and annoying practice. I personally feel this name lacks class and taste.
