Naming the product 'The Naiad'

A naiad is the immature form of the dragonfly and is a very successful predator of mosquitoes.
I will integrate the form of the dragonfly and naiad into the actual design of my roller. The insect body features a lot of ridges and overlapping plates and it is this aesthetic feature I want to integrate into my model.
The naiad and dragonfly are recognised by the local population as predators of mosquitoes which has a positive connotation, which will transfer over to my product
When integrating the form of the insect into my product I don't want the addition to be too obvious or overdone. I want the additions to be subtle and add to the practicality of the product rather than just an aesthetic feature.
