river nymph
Freshwater mythical maiden
A river nymph is a female spirit or minor deity associated with a river in Greek and Roman mythology.
These supernatural beings—naiads—were imagined as beautiful young women dwelling in and protecting freshwater sources.
The term appears in classical literature, fantasy fiction, and figuratively for graceful swimmers: She moved through the water like a river nymph.
