Ailsa is a name of Scottish origin, linked to the small island of Ailsa Craig. While it's meaning is still debated, Encyclopaedia Brittanica states the name Ailsa Craig is from the Scots Gaelic Ailsae Craig meaning “Fairy Rock”. This is likely influenced by the Norse name for the island Alfsigesey meaning "Alfsigr's island". Alfsgir is from the Norse alf meaning "elf" and sigr meaning "victory".

Ailsa brings to mind the rugged granite cliffs, roaring waves, clusters of elder trees, and the cloudy wings of the sea birds found on the high cliffs. It is a cool, misty name.

Alma is from the Latin word almus meaning “nourishing, kind, propitious”. It is also a word for “soul” in Spanish. In Hungarian, it means “apple”. Then, in Hebrew, it means “young woman”. It’s a name with a variety of meanings and a lovely sound.

For me, Alma is a warm, creamy name like a cozy soft blanket and smells of fresh coconut, vanilla, and clean linens. It is also sometimes early mornings in late summer where the mist hangs in the air: warm, fresh, and new.

Ivo is an Ancient Germanic name derived from the element iv , meaning "yew".

The longevity of the yew tree and its ability to regenerate led to them being revered as the 'tree of immortality'. While known to grow in the harshest barren and polluted lands, these ancient trees have endured countless changes in the climate throughout the ages. Hedges of yew trees are known to grow back quickly and fallen branches can even take root and form a new tree. This has made the yew a symbol of rebirth, renewal, and steadfastness.

In addition to it's strength, the wood of the yew tree is flexible, making it ideal for crafting. English and Welsh longbows made from yew were known to be especially effective in battle.

Interestingly, every part of the yew tree is toxic with the exception of the red fruit surrounding the poisonous seed.

This short, handsome name makes me think ...

August is an English name meaning "exalted, venerable" from the Latin augustus or possibly from the Latin augere meaning "to increase". It is a time of harvest and abundance, symbolizing prosperity and the fruition of hard work. For me, it is vibrant, warm, and welcoming—the moment when you smell the change in the air from Summer to Autumn.

The month of August was called Sextilis until the name was changed to honor Augustus Caesar.
