Most sylvari names are taken from Celtic and Welsh backgrounds, but yeah, some come from other places. Tyria is an entire different world, though, so it's unrelated. And haha, vivisection sounds worse because it specifically means that it happens while the subject is alive. Dissection is usually done to a corpse so that's the mental association; vivisection, on the other hand...
