Blathnat, Blaanid and Blaíthín -- flowers, flowers, everywhere flowers
The name of the day on the home page is Blathnat (I don't know how to make the accent going up over the first A of Blathnat.) The H makes the first T silent, so it's pronounced something like, "BLAH-nit." It means little flower. I know it's an acquired taste. And I'm not suggesting anyone use it in real life outside of Ireland. But for the pure love of names I was wondering if anyone else likes (or dare I hope, loves,) Blathnat? Variant Blaanid might be more palatable. Personally I'm most drawn to variant Blaíthín ("BLAH-heen"), but all warm my heart. Any combinations would be the cherry on top of my day. Thanks! :0)Also, are there any neat names meaning flower in other languages that you care to share?
