* Chyoni is a variant of Chione which is the feminine form of Chion which is from the Greek noun χιών *(chion)* meaning "snow".
	+ In Greek mythology, she was the daughter of the naiad Callirrhoe and god of the Nile river Neilus. Zeus had Hermes turn her into a snow cloud and it's from this myth that it is believed that the Greek word *khiōn* (χιών) came to mean 'snow'. Another story has her as the daughter of the north wind Boreas and Orithyia, where she is a snow nymph or a minor goddess of snow.
* Guinevere is from the Norman French form of the Welsh name *Gwenhwyfar* meaning "white phantom", ultimately from the Old Celtic roots \**windos* meaning "fair, white, blessed" (modern Welsh *gwen*) and \**sebros* meaning "phantom, magical being".
	+ In Arthurian legend she was the beautiful wife of King Arthur. According to the 12th-century chronicler Geoffrey of Monmouth, she was seduced by Mordred before the battle of Camlann, which led to the deaths of both Mordred and Arthur. According to the 12th-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes, she engaged in an adulterous affair with Sir Lancelot.
* Aynokion comes form *Aenocyon Dirus* which is the genius name for the direwolf. It literally means "dreadful, terrible" in Latin.
