Eilonwy

In The Black Cauldron, Princess Eilonwy was a prisoner of the Horned King. Eilonwy, Taran and Fflewddur Fflam escaped from the Horned King's castle together. They reunited with Taran's companion Gurgi and found themselves in the kingdom of the Fair Folk. They decided to find and destroy the Black Cauldron. After the Horned King was defeated, they traveled to Caer Dallben together.

Eilonwy is a Welsh name that was coined in the late 1800s. It is derived from the Welsh word 'Eilon' which can mean either "melody, song" or "deer, stag." In 2014, 5 girls were names Eilonwy in the U.S.
