A bubbling drop of green in a pool of rose gold... blending and dissolving into marble swirls... mythical beings over a foggy horizon... this name feels so elaborate, like it's something out of a fantasy novel, yet simple enough that a human child could proudly bear it. Acantha's gentle beauty touches the soul.

When I first came upon this name, I fell in love with it but was deterred by negative comments. The meaning 'thorn' isn't bad at all: if you're anything like a flower, you are pure and innocent, but you have flaws, just like everyone else. I think Acantha is a wonderful name.
