Genovera is a girl’s name and variation of Genevra, a form of Guinevere which is the Norman French form of the Welsh Gwenhwyfar. Gwenhwyfar is derived from the old Celtic windos, meaning "white," and sēbros, meaning "phantom” or “magical being.” Guinevere was, most famously, King Arthur’s wife, the beautiful and legendary queen of Britain who is also linked to the white knight who loved her, Sir Lancelot. To give your little one a name like Genovera is to put the proverbial crown on their head—pop it on and watch them make magic wherever they go.
