Sunflower (English)

Where does "Sunflower" come from?

The English word "sunflower" combines "sun," referring to the sun, and "flower," denoting the plant. Its use as a name in the videogame Omori draws directly from the word "sunflower," symbolizing the character Sunny's name and Basil's flower crown. This modern adaptation shows how familiar plant names can inspire creative character names in contemporary media.
