How Persephone got her name
Everybody knows the story of Persephone. It's has always been my favorite name for a girl. It's pretty. It comes from Greek mythology where Persephone's beauty prompts Hades to wisk her off to the underworld and make her his wife. Over time, she grows to love Hades and enjoy her position as queen of the dead. Of course, she also misses the world where her mother, Demeter, has made it very cold and killed all the plants to force her father, Zeus, to get her back. In order t have the best of both worlds, Persephone drinks the juice of a single pomegranet seed, making it so that she has to spend half the year in the underworld with her husband. This is where we get seasons.
Elizabeth is her Paternal Grandmother's name.
Dorner was her step-grandfathers middle name. It was also his mother's maiden name.
