This story was inspired by The Nutcracker by E.T.A. Haufmann. As that story was set in Germany I set my own story there and that had a lot of influence on the names of the characters. I like to meanings to the names I pick so here is a glossary of name meanings as well as some meanings for some of the German words I used in the story. 

Ursula - Little She Bear 

Niklaus - People's Victory

Axel - Axe

Johan - Graced by God

Annelie - Favour/Grace

Josephine - God shall add

Maria - Sea of Sorrow/Bitter

Adler - Eagle

Conrad - Bold Counsel/Wise Counsel


Words:

Oma - Grandmother

Honigbiene - Honeybee 

Konig - King 

Konigreich - Kingdom


I sincerely hoped you enjoyed my story.
