An Empress By Any Other Name . . .

We recently bought the movie The Neverending Story for Chicken Nugget. I really liked it when I was a kid, and I thought she would too (she does); also, it was really cheap to buy!

I watched it with her and it got to the end, you know, where Bastian yells a new name for the empress. He yells out the window and there's lots of wind and rain and you cannot understand the beautiful name that he gives the empress, though it was a beautiful name (his mother's).

After watching the movie, it reminded me of this blog post which posed the question as to what the name actually was. It sparked quite a conversation (note the comments).

I have to say that after watching it carefully and moving very close to the screen to try get a very close look at Bastian's mouth as he screamed the name, I do believe that it is Moonchild, and not Lisa as I had originally ascertained.
