basically im trying to decide which

bc on the one hand

just a normal every day amalthea would be easier

but on the other hand

dude amalthea would be the greatest twink known to man

and that is my weakness

and also ive already been steadily designing dude amalthea in my head already So

relatedly

additional problem: trying to figure out what to call boy amalthea. same name...? its very gendered tho...
different name that sounds similar? or completely different name, but with similar origins? hnnn

i have an idea, but only for that last category

amalthea, in myth, was zeus' foster mother (sometimes the goat that nursed him, sometimes a nymph that was said goats handler)

also the name of a moon of jupiter

so, the only idea i have, a completely different name but with similar origins...

ganymede. zeus' male lover. also a moon of jupiter

and i mean, schmendrick came up with the name amalthea for the unicorn, probably sifting through famous/mythical names in the moment

shit shit whats a name for an otherworldly beautiful guy uh... uH....... GANYMEDE yeah ganymede -schmendrick, probably
