To all the band

« on: November 06, 2009, 11:55:24 AM »

Is was just wondering what the band name actually means or refers to.
I just updated the wiki page with my 2 possible answers.

Quote

- It could refer to the Tristania flower or;
- 'Trist' means 'Sad' in Romanian and 'Tristania' can be translated 'The land of sadness'

Are either of these correct interpretations or is there another correct one?

Many thanks,
Tayla xxx

Quote from Anders: "Tristania is a fantasy name with no special meaning. It's based on the Norwegian word for sadness/melancholy; "trist", though."
It's on this topic: http://theilluminated.net/ask-the-band/name-of-your-group/
I hope that helped Wink
