What is in a name.

The name elle lumine comes from the word 'illumine'

il·lu·mine
(ĭ-lōō'mĭn)
tr.v. il·lu·mined, il·lu·min·ing, il·lu·mines
To give light to; illuminate.

but since 'il' is masculine in french I changed it to 'elle' which is feminine meaning her. elle lumine means to give her light in a way. cleaver no?

but i can't take all the credit, suzie q in my class found illumine and along with a few other people in the class we came up with elle lumine. thanks guys.
