You do have a very unique name, it is lovelySyson Dolph wrote: ↑22 Sep 2019, 11:15 Having a name that is not only unique but also has meaning that is out of this world is a fact I take pride in. I love the author`s creativity as it makes the tale stand out more with varying perspectives.

I definitely think it added to the story.HeatherEi wrote: ↑02 Sep 2019, 11:07 I really enjoyed the names that Dew Pellucid created. I thought it was interesting that the book kept referencing Hebrew names. I am assuming that the author is Jewish and wanted to intertwine her heritage through the story. Do you think that added to the story or did it seem out of place?
I also liked the use of surnames such as Cleary and Drinkwater. Especially since water and crystal were so important to the story of Echoland.

That is a really charming observation.djr6090 wrote: ↑18 Sep 2019, 08:51 I think my favorite name is Dew Pellucid. 'Pellucid' means easy to understand, crystal clear. Besides being the author's pen name, it evokes thoughts of sparkling water and reflective worlds. And it is the name given to a librarian! If you want to have something clarified, ask a librarian!
