Why Alphecca? 

​

Alphecca is the name of the brightest star in the constellation the Northern Crown, also known as the Corona Borealis. It is linked to the Greek myth of Ariadne, and also to the Welsh goddess Arianrhod. As Ariadne's crown, and Arianrhod's castle in the sky, the constellation evokes a sense of mystery and wonder.
