It is a genus of plants. One of the species is a garden flower known as "Love-in-a-mist" and another species is a spice known as "kalonji".

An ugly, unimaginative, lazily constructed name.

Pronounced "nie-JEL-ə".

The plant, also known as Nigelia, money plant, and love-in-a-mist, symbolizes perplexity. Hmm.

In all honesty, I don't mind this name. It's always occurred to me as a rather nice name for a female cat, a queen, if you will. :) lol
