Names I'd like to have more in media for metaphorical reasons
Disclaimer: I'm doing this out of the back of my head, so don't come after me. I'm not an expert in anything and I might have a different interpretation of the story. Do your own research.

3. Pandora

The first human (woman), she was gifted with a jar, that she was told to never open. She did it anyways (because she was so curious what is in the jar) and released all bad spirits (violence, war, famine, illnesses etc.) onto this world. She now has to guard the jar, which contains only one spirit: Hope
For those who brought evil into this world, without meaning to

5. Gnowee
Wotjobaluk (Native Australian)
Personification of the sun. She once was a mortal woman, who lived in darkness on earth and people only could move with the aid of bark torches.

For those who never give up
For those who will do everything for their children

9. Lorelei
German
She was like a siren but kind of different. Lorelei was the daughter of a river (the Rhein, if I remember correctly) and always sat naked at her father's side, because he promised to protect her or sm. So when sailors saw the beautiful Lorelei and wanted to get to her, her father Rhein always drowned said sailors.

Four native Australian ladies broke out from obscurity and gained fame in a time of blatant racism and discrimination against both their colour and gender.
They spoke out against war in general and the war against their people.
And when Hollywood decided to make a film about their lives, they had to shoehorn in a useless romance plot.
see this is a grass tree, or a black boy (not many people call it that anymore cause it racist) but I know it as xanthorrhoea preissii which is this particular species botanical name. they are extremely slow growing, in perfect conditions they can grow about a foot every ten years. these being native to western australias bush and the bush being so untouched I thought id find the oldest/ tallest one I could to take a selfie with whilst I was exploring. this was probably the biggest one I found.
me being tall as fuck at 6 foot 7 inches this thing is towering over me being atleast 12 foot tall. that means it is atleast over 120 years old.
I find that amazing but what I find more amazing is that they are fire resistant. in extreme bush fires they will burn all their old leaves off and be left with the black burnt outter layer of whats left of the leaves but even though they are so slow groing they are one of the first plants to regenerate and put on new foliage after a fire. you can see in the last photo this one had recently been burnt. also if you take one out or one has died you can look along the trunk and put a date on when all the bushfires occurred in a certain area of the bush.
