they are indeed, I just find that names derived from consumable works have seemingly less heartfelt meaning than established names from ancestral roots.

I do agree that mixing it up a little makes for a more interesting world. I'd love to meet a Lyra at some point in my life

That's fair and a good point!

Oh, Lyra from "his dark materials", is it something else, or just that you like that name?

Not OP, but isn't Lyra Jyn Erso's mom?

Oh, we didn't know that or forgot. Thanks!
