    The Mermaid of Zennor, and other Mermaids from Cornwall

    Now you have to admit that Zennor is the coolest place name in all of the United Kingdom. One can imagine all sorts of epic fantasy occurring in a place like that!

    Also, I noticed that some folklorists who have recorded the story say that the famous mermaid's name is Morveren, but that's just the word in the Celtic Cornish language for mermaid (mor=sea/veren=girl or maiden).

    It would make very cool name for a merling, though, either that or or the Welsh name for mermaid (Morwyn).
