I thought your handle meant "forest spirit" but I realized I'm likely wrong based on your profile description. What language is it and what does it mean? "Metsaanhenki" I mean. If it DOES have any meaning pft. It's just that some person sent your shop after we admired their keychain that was from you and I checked your tumblr and got a bit of whiplash thinking I found a fin in the wild.😂
you got the meaning of my username right!
at first i wanted my username to be in latvian, but "mežagars" (forest spirit in latvian) didn't really hit...
so since i was obssesed with finnish mythology and culture at that time i decided my nickname to be "metsänhenki"
many people confuse my country of origin because of this xdd
fun fact: sadly on most platforms this name was taken, so i tired to come up with version that was free, this is why it might sound a little grammatically incorrect
Ooh, really? Have you heard about Näkki yet? Not the food thingamajig, but creature.
In case you haven't, I suggest searching up thw painting of it! It's said to be a creature of the lakes that beckons children into the waters near night to sink them down below. I just think it's a super cute seaweed goober in the painting and find it funny that it sounds like it's related to the dry crack like "bread" fins like.
This guyy
yes i know this guy! love this silly creature 🫶
i think i need to make a series of mythological creatures
