Philyra

A true treat to the ear, Philyra is a feminine name of Greek origin that is equal parts citrusy and magical. From the root philúrā, Philyra means “linden tree” or “lime tree,” bringing to mind lush orchards brimming with green, sour fruit. Philyra has a mythological appeal to it as the name of an Okeanid-nymph who the Titan Kronos loved. She gave birth to their son Chiron, a centaur who was famed for his wisdom and mentored heroes like Achilles, Jason, and Herakles. Zesty and spiritual, Philyra is the perfect choice for a sprite as enchanting as baby.
