| Naming Notes | The name Amphads was inspired by the initials of each of my family members. The first A is for my name, Avril. The M is for my mom's name, Maria. Then the 'ph' was included for the phage to have a ph in its name. The second A is for my brother's name, Alberto. The D is for my dad's name, Daniel. Lastly, the S is for my sister's name, Sonya. I had done different variations for the phage name, but this one flowed the best. |
