Marissa Meyer:
in your novels, why did you name the queen Levana? Thank you so much for writing the wonderful books, my friend and I have read every one since the first came out.

I'd have to check this to be sure, but I believe Levana literally means "Queen of the Moon."
I try to give most of my characters meaningful names like that, and many of them are inspired by their fairy tale counterparts, too. I will often change a character's name multiple times until I find one that feels just perfect!
