The emperor!?"} our older children also have powerful names; Samara either means "guardian" or "under god's rule" depending on which book you read {I'm an Atheist, so I cling to "guardian"}. Caesar, for Julius Caesar. Mercutio, for the spectacular Shakespearean character. Severus, as not only a strong character in the series, but also an emperor, fit in perfectly.<br /><br />Sallow skinned Snape's appearance, or his personality, weren't anything we took into consideration. How he's 21 months old and is the complete opposite of what I've always imagined Snape to be, so we've lucked out for now. :)<br /><br />Just some insight from a Severus' mom, haha!Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037717665642208790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2987975473741642533.post-51118713507920453452011-05-09T07:32:31.260-07:002011-05-09T07:32:31.260-07:00I think that really the parents were hoping that t...I think that really the parents were hoping that their child would be more like Alan Rickman instead of just the character "Severus." I mean Alan isn't the most exciting name..But Alan R. made "Severus" who he is!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05078434289667660306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2987975473741642533.post-91631588320585371972011-05-09T01:24:50.542-07:002011-05-09T01:24:50.542-07:00CLASSIC!!!
