Gender: Female

This is one of The Little Mermaids sister’s names. I was seeing The Little Mermaid DVD special edition advertised and I went into looking into her sister’s names. This name Arista has really pretty strong meanings. It is a very aristocratic noble name which I love. It does make me think artist though when I at first see it. It also makes me think of Aristotle for some reason when I see this name. I also like that it is a stars name as I happen to love many star names. This name has cuteness to it which I like but it also has a strongness which makes this name endearing.

Writing Quotes

You must keep sending work out; you must never let a manuscript do nothing but eat its head off in a drawer. You send that work out again and again, while you're working on another one. If you have talent, you will receive some measure of success - but only if you persist. – Isaac Asimov

The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.”- Terry Pratchett
