Selene

From the Greek 'Selene' — the goddess of the moon. The name derives from 'selas' (brightness, light), making Selene literally 'the bright one' or 'moon goddess.' A name of celestial beauty and ancient mythology.

Selene is a name that seems to belong to the night sky. The Greek moon goddess herself, Selene is for a pale, ethereal pet who seems to carry moonlight in her coat — a white Samoyed, a silver Persian cat, any animal with that luminous, otherworldly quality. She is calm and beautiful and moves through the world with a quiet, celestial grace. Selene does not rush. The moon does not rush.
