Tarrenshyl /tɛrɛ́ntʃəl/ (female)

Tarrenshyl is a bastard of almost untraceable descent, but make no mistake: This is not a weakness, but a strength. A veritable battleground of conflicting words and names (torrential, tarantula, Tara, Cheryl, etc.), Tarrenshyl is impossible to pin down. This type of name is something of a rarity these days, composed in the Post-Gibberish style of baby naming so popular 25 years ago. Though this name tends to be chosen almost exclusively by white, weekend hippies between the ages of 40 and 45, there are apparently still enough of those around to have put this name on our incredibly exclusive radar.

“My daughter, Tarrenshyl, is extremely talented.”
