It's a nice name. One he's never heard before, but he likes it.

"I see no reason why it can't mean all of them. That gives your name a lot of meaning then. Three for one word."

And words were powerful things, as he well knew.

Merlin let one hand fall down to the surface of the water, a small tap that sent ripples of waves out.

"I ain't never thought about it like that before," Garmay admitted. And she sort of liked it. She'd never had much that was her own before. But her name she loved. And thinking about there being more to it was kind of a nice thought.

She moved a little closer to the bank, some of the green splashing off of her. "Does your name mean anythin'?" she asked. "I sure do love names with good stories behind 'em."

Aware of the current state of his company's undress, Merlin blushed a little, but he wasn't really as skittish as he used to be. Consorting with faye and fairies and all manner of magical creatures that had no use whatsoever for clothing had adjusted his sense of propriety a good deal.

Still, he does avert his eyes out of politeness and smiles at the shadows in the water.

"Where I come from, a merlin is a kind of bird, a falcon. It also means fortress of the sea." And because of him, it looked like his name would come to mean 'advisor'.
