Septarian
Origin:Latin
Meaning:Enclosed place, a concretionary nodule with filled cracks inside; A gemstone also known as dragon stone
Septarian is a gender-neutral name of Latin origin for gem-lovers looking for inspiration—quite literally—from the depths of the ocean. Stemming from the Latin word septarium, Septarian describes an enclosed place or the space between partitions, just like the appearance of the septarian gemstone. Septarian takes millions of years to form on the sea floor, where minerals and sediment in the water gather around shells or the bones of marine creatures and crystallize. The result is a gorgeous, segmented stone with bands of barite, calcite, and other minerals coursing throughout. Also known as dragonstone, septarian definitely has an ancient, draconic vibe to it that may inspire courage in your little one. In spirituality, septarian is believed to help people destress, connect to Mother Nature, and feel lighter and happier in general. Septarian could be the perfect name choice if you'd like something earthy and original for your child.
