The lovely thing about names was there could be multiple meanings applied to them and different origin stories. She felt confident that her reasons were different than how he interpreted the name to be fitting. "It's one of my favorite off white colors to paint walls," she offered as an explanation, feeling in a particularly good mood considering the circumstances and less frigid. "Never been a fan of the snowy white varieties, entirely too sterile and high contrast. More a color I like to use to tint colors that may be too unwelcoming." She paused a moment, purses her lips and pulls a bit of hair free that had blown into the corner of her mouth and caught on her rosy lip. "I'm an interior designer. And when I adopted Coconut...there was not a swatch nor space I did not incorporate the color somewhere."

Taking a moment to adjust her hold on Coconut, who had now decided to nuzzle their wet nose right into Jade's neck and folded themselves over Jade's shoulder, she easily committed the name to memory. Leander. "Perhaps the hero is more of a middle name anyway." Pleasantries aside, and before she could offer some of her wet wipes from her bag to take care of the cleanliness of his hand, Jade's mouth dropped open at a glacial pace while Leander instead took that same hand and combed it through his blonde hair. "...and most people don't resort to using dog slobber for hair gel," she teased not unsympathetically upon clearing her throat, now offering him some wet wipes in her outstretched hand.
"An interior designer?" Leander asked, more intrigued as the moment went on. He'd thought the name fitting because of the dogs white fur, both the colour and the fluffiness he always associated with the desiccated fruit. Jade's story, however, was even more wonderful, honestly. "You sound incredibly passionate about your work," he added - it was obvious in the fact that she'd named the companion after something related to his work.

For a second, he wondered what he would name a pet, if he ever had one. Maybe Bellini, or Botticelli, or Raphael. It didn't surprise him that the names that came to mind were related to his work, too.

"Bad habits," he managed with a slight grimace, gratefully accepting the wipes and using it to clean his hand. "Maybe this will stop me from touching my hair so often - apparently it's going to make me bald, or at least that's what my grandmother says."
