The name Anthony
Worthy of praise, priceless one
Latin: antonius, possibly from antus (worthy)
Anthony carries the weight of dignity with quiet ease: a name of saints and emperors, yet humble in its grace. Parents see in this name a child who will move through the world with quiet composure, who earns respect not by demanding it but by living worthily.

A song written for Anthony, and Anthony alone.
Every WenderSong is composed around one child’s name, and woven from what that
name means. Anthony's lullaby carries his name through the melody and draws
on its spirit, so the song is quietly about him, not just labeled with a name.
