After noting **Xenophon** ’s location, and recalling that Mrs. Xeno often reads over his shoulder (and encouraging her to register and post), I realized that in renewing that encouragement I had the perfect name for her, to offer as an inducement: **Anna Basis**! 🙂

I had a few I was debating using until I happened to spot a name on this forum and it was unclaimed, so I took it.  
Now I’m giving back the ones I was debating, for use by others:

Millipedantic

Dolphinium

Parma Violet

Bastogne

Box Coat

Not a pattern there, I’ll admit, but that’s how all naming goes, whether for pets, children, or national parks.

Ozz is a pretty lame name, though, especially for a pet or national park haha
