The name IS a small matter for me. Illogical, yes. Small matter,
definitely. My primary purpose with my earlier comment was to correct
the error in identification you made (which is rather broader than
varied spellings of one Jewish festival, incidentally). |

I don't know if I have any place here, but I think it is really just
up to the owner of the character. So what? I mean, they could love
their character like a child, and yet people hate it because a female
has a male name. I actually am guilty of doing this, with a she-wolf
named Logan. Just putting my thought out there... - L |

I also cannot see the logic in naming a clearly female character after
a male figure. Of course, the god in question was named "Ares", not
"Aries", which I believe is more the spelling of the astrological
symbol in the western zodiac...a ram (thus, male). No issues with the
design otherwise as far as I can tell from a casual analysis... |

Nice picture, but I can't help noting the incongruity that she's named
after a Greco-Roman deity who was so masculine that his symbol is used
for males to this day, yet this character is herself clearly
female. Sorry, ADHD moment there. Back on the artistic side of things, I think her markings make an interesting break from the usual dark-above, light-below pattern. Not sure about realism, but it looks good. |
It may be weird but, if Artemisa liked this name, well, good for her
