About Cyane
Greek in origin, the name Cyane is derived from the word "kyanos," meaning "cyan, azure-blue." In Greek mythology, Cyane was a Naiad nymph who resided in a spring in the Sicilian town of Syracuse.
After witnessing the abduction of her playmate Persephone by Hades, Cyane was overcome with grief and dissolved into the spring's waters. The name also carries a modern connection to the trend of naming children after colors, with "Cyane" meaning "bright blue enamel."
