Meaning behind the name: Vega is the fifth brightest star in our galaxy, it is able to be seen from earth during summer in the northern hemisphere, and actually means "one who dwells in the meadow", which I thought would be perfect for a horse, as they tend to love to graze.

In real life, though, I just finished a really beautiful romance novel (I read one romance novel a year and that's it, thanks. I much prefer historical fiction, or really anything written especially well) and just being sad that I finished it, happy it ended so well and just really, really tired. I need more sleep. But anyway, there's a name C:
