Ok, let me straight-up say that before 5 minutes ago, I hadn't the slightest idea what "ingénue" meant. And I thought it was pronounced "in-jen-ewe".
For the record, it means "a naive, innocent girl or young woman" (thanks, Dictionary.com).
And it's pronounced "on-je-new", but the "je" part you need to say in a French accent. Google that shit.
As for how I chose it for my title, well, I googled "most beautiful words" and clicked on the first link, which listed "ingénue".
"Hmm, this looks interesting. Why don't I choose this random word. Do I know what it means? Nope. Oh well. Let's see if it's available to use as a blog title. Ah-ha! It is!"
And the rest was history.
