Oh I knew you'd love them all. :)

Tegwared takes some getting used to. It was a character in a book (an historical fiction book, so he was a real person born arount 1200), and it caught my attention. I kept thinking about it, how jewely green and honest and gentle and friendly-cuddly it was, but I couldn't like it more until I figured out what it meant and I couldn't find it anywhere. So then I did my own investigating and decided it must be teg (fair) + gwared (salvation). Which brought it right up the awesome scale.
