[adrotate group="5"]January 20, 2014 at 2:25 pm #238796RumplesGirlKeymasterI like the name and it’s a conterder. There are some other names that mean “green” too like we’ve posted in various places.
–Kelly
–Jade
–Ivy
The only issue I have with Esmeralda is that there is already a Disney Character that most people know named that I don’t think they’d want to confuse the audience.

Hm interesting…the other Esmerelda I can think about is one of the aunts of the main character in Bewitched.

January 20, 2014 at 5:15 pm #238907obisgirlParticipantEsmerelda would be nice but yeah, we already have Esmerelda from Hunchback of Notre Dame. It might be too confusing to name WWW that. I go with Victoria.
January 21, 2014 at 11:33 am #2391983princessesParticipantOut of curiosity, I looked up names that mean green & found some other choices:
Beryl
Chloris
Verna or Laverne
Virdiana
Also, Yara is a Brazilian goddess with green hair.
January 21, 2014 at 11:41 am #239199kfchimeraParticipantI actually would like Esmerelda and tying in to Hunchback and gypsies as they mentioned them a few times. Ruth’s necklace for example.
Plus its the Aunt on Bewitched–a show of magic in a (well at the time) modern world. Goes great with my crack idea of Charming having a sister we never knew about who’s the witch.

Oh, that is where I heard that name before ha!!! 🙂
January 22, 2014 at 12:33 am #239403Hook’s GirlParticipantI like Ivy. It sounds like an older name. Ever notice that most of the female names on the show and in a lot of the Disney films are short. All but Mary Margret, Cinderella & Anastasia are no more then 6 letters.
Are there girl names that mean wicked or another trait? Or maybe a name that goes with red hair. Because maybe if WWW wasn’t born green then she may not have had a “green” name.
Names are a speciality of Rumple’s so if he had any involvement with WWW as a baby, maybe he helped choose her name so “green” name would fit then. He could have a side business helping parents chose baby names based on what future he could “see” happening to the child. “When you see the future, there is irony everywhere.” – Rumple

Maybe.
Because maybe if WWW wasn’t born green then she may not have had a “green” name.
if we’re going there, I’m going to say Scarlett. Ruby’s already taken. 😉
with the WWW, I think, her origin story could go either way. she could have been turned green or born green.
January 22, 2014 at 9:29 am #239469RumplesGirlKeymasterI’m going to say Scarlett.
Oooooh. I do like that name. And red is also the color of the slippers in the MGM movie. Sorta tie in.
