Altaira

You’ll be starry-eyed for Altaira, a variant of Altair with Greek and Arabic roots and a connection to the cosmos. Altair is a particularly luminous star that makes up one of the points of the Summer Triangle in the Aquila constellation, which resembles an eagle with outstretched wings. In Greek mythology, Altair represents Aquila, a mythical figure linked to the story of Zeus transforming Ganymede into an eagle. To the Greeks, this gender-neutral name means “star,” whereas its Arabic meaning is “the flier” or “flying eagle.” When you shower little Altaira with more love than stars in the sky, they’ll have the confidence to fly like an eagle.
