Ronan is from Old Irish rón meaning "seal" and with a diminutive suffix, it means "little seal". Seals are featured in Irish folklore as the shapeshifting Selkies with their seal skin coats.

This name is rocky seasides, salt air, shaggy auburn hair, and welly boots. It's comfortable—familiar but not expected.

I'm Patricia — but please call me Pia ! 🌻

I'm 36, a Gemini, INFP, namenerd, and an absurdist with a bit of stoic flare. I am an admirer of autumn as well as a lover of sweaters, cardigans, dresses, and cute socks—anything cozy!

If you have any questions or suggestions, let me know!

“I never approve, or disapprove, of anything now. It is an absurd attitude to take towards life. We are not sent into the world to air our moral prejudices. I never take any notice of what common people say, and I never interfere with what charming people do. If a personality fascinates me, whatever mode of expression that personality selects is absolutely delightful to me.”

— Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Rowan is from the Old Irish Rúadán , derived from rúad "red". It is also associated with the rowan tree.

This tree holds great significance in the Celtic Ogham when used for protection against enchantment, magic, and evil spirits. Planting a rowan tree near a home was believed to keep the occupants safe. Carved talismans or even just twigs of this wood are used to ward off negative energy and to help you along the right path to avoid getting lost. The rowan tree is thought to be one of the most magical trees and is an important symbol of protection, good fortune, and magical potency.

In Scotland, rowan trees are also associated with St. Brighid. She was the patroness of the arts, healing, smithing, spinning, and weaving.
