1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Winter Solstice related names...

Dec 22, 2016

    1. I am looking for names related to the Winter Solstice as my doll arrived on that day and wondered if anyone has ideas which could help.
      It is a fantasy type female sculpt, so would love to hear any ideas from fiction too.
      I originally had ideas and plans for this girl, but due to a nightmare scenario which unfolded while waiting, I am finding it pretty hard to bond with her and hoped that you guys might ignite my excitement again.
       
    2. Gwyneira, Eira, Bora, Eirwen, Isolde, Kirsi, Neva, and Lixue are are all names having to do with winter!

    3. Aster, Ursa, and Demetria are also all good wintry choices!
       
    4. Yule, Mithra, Aurora, Frigga, Alcyone, Ash, Ivy, Soyala, Chiara, Noor, Dea, Holly. All of these are related to the Winter Solstice in one way or another. :)
       
    5. Here's selection for you:-
      Alaska,
      Aspen, (poplar tree often found at ski resorts)
      Holly, (associated with wintery red berries)
      Lumi, (Finnish name meaning snow)
      Winnie, (regarded as an alternative name to winter)
      Yukio, (Japanese moniker for snow)
      Neve, (latin for snow)
      Wren, (the winter bird)

    6. No offense, but Demeter is the Greek goddess of crops and growing things - more summer than winter. Though it would be a good name if you like irony. Demi can also mean part or partial, like a hero who is part god part/ human is a demigod.

      Khione is the Greek goddess of snow- so that name is very wintery

      Good luck with your naming!
       
    7. I've always been fond of the name Isolde.
       
    8. Demeter was the mother of Persephone, who got tricked by Hades which bound her to stay in the underworld for certain months every year. Because of Demeters grief caused by the absence of her daughter, these months are known as the unfruitful months, i.e. winter.

      -Frostine
      -Crystal (like ice crystals)
      -Noelle
      -Capricornia
