I am very much into astrology, so I decided to name my character after a constellation that reflects my character's duality. Her feminine nature is represented by our healers, especially WHM. Nurturing, a pacifist, in tune with the elements, aspires to be beautiful and kind towards others. She is the light. Her masculine nature is represented by our tanks, especially DRK. Aggressive, a provider, a builder, enjoys combat and aspires to deliver steel justice to the corrupt. He is the dark. Since I ultimately decided to go with a female avatar I suffixed her name with an 'a' instead of an 'i', and named her Gemina.

Her surname is total lore-based, but not original. I won't get into the lore here, but those interested can read my blog here: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes.../blog/4021281/

The really short version is it was given to her by her adoptive father and Hraesvelgr upon discovering that Lunarian blood runs through her veins. As most people know, Luna is Latin for the celestial body we know as the moon. Lunarians are humanoids that play a integral role in my favorite Final Fantasy game to this day: FFIV
