Ariel means "lion of God", and it was the name of the mermaid from the famous tale by Andersen. Ariel has then requested this design to represent her name.
The lion was coupled with gladiolus (small sword) flowers which, like the lion, represent strength of character and generosity.
The mermaid symbolizes seduction and femininity, like water does, being a strong symbol of femininity and life.
