Etymology
Sileria is the modern form of the more ancient Siluria, the name given to the island by the Cambrans. The name comes from the Silures, a Celtic tribe that the Cambrans encountered on the island. Silures is a Cambran word of Celtic origin. It is derived from the Common Celtic root *sīlo-, which means "seed".
In Silerian, the name is Penfro meaning "Land's End". Pen means "head" or "end", and bro means "region", "country", "land".
