Help[Opinions] Merrow?
A merrow is a kind of mermaid in Irish mythology. Apparently they can be both beautiful and scary looking. Merrow is also a surname.
My question is, do you think Merrow could be used as a name? If so, is it female, male or unisex?
I think it sounds nice, but then I don't speak any Irish, and English isn't my mother tongue, so there may be bad associations I don't know about...
(While reading about merrows I also read about a creature called selkie or silkie. Not a very good name, but I remember my favorite teacher read Mollie Hunter's selkie story A Stranger came Ashore aloud in middle school, which is a nice memory...)
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?
