Post for Feb. 16

Hello all,

One concept Eliade discusses is the idea of "Celestial Models," which means using a religious, mythological, or historical model as the basis for a new act, event, or creation.

One clear example of this occurs in the process of naming; we choose names because they embody and reflect certain characteristics.

For this post, explain how one of these names is significant. Analyze the etymology (word roots and origin), and explain how the history of this name is relevant for understanding the character.

Icarus
Corazon
Mace
Cassie/Cassandra
Capa/Kappa
