Etymology[]

"Twintania" is a portmanteau of the Greek name "Titania" and the prefix "twin". Titania is a character in William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. The name "Titania" means "giant, great one", and is derived from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where it is an appellation given to Titan's daughters. In A Midsummer Night's Dream, Titania is the queen of the fairies. Two Twintanias spawn a time in Final Fantasy XII, possibly in allusion to their name.
