History & Origin

Anova is a modern coinage building on Nova — Latin novus, 'new', the term for a suddenly brightening star — with an A- opening in the style of Anaya and Amara. It belongs to the booming celestial-name wave.

It registers thinly in recent records. Rare, new-star at the root, and luminously modern.

Did you know? A nova is a star that suddenly blazes bright in the night sky — 'new' to the watcher — and Anova wraps that burst of light in an extra opening vowel. (Statisticians will also smile: ANOVA is a famous analysis method.)
