she.
Out of the clay of nothingness and dirt,
An artist sculpted my love story,
Her statuesque is intertwined with mine;
With Stars shining in her hair, my fairy tinuviel,
Searching and wandering for her, time immemorial,
Her love is like an age old wine;
She walk the street at night, into the blue light,
On Pegasys, wings fluttered, moon-chasing, starry ride,
Lips kiss, comets will collide, skies will shine;
Holding her hand, walking, kissing, loving, talking,
Free as birds, weightless as astronauts, moon-walking,
Dancing and tracing, romancing, eyes in line;
Laying in arms, thrown back, legs intertwined,
Elves singing, angels serving, in heavens we dine,
A tear to a thought, her gentle touch, she is all mine.

Thank you
No greek words (including names) end in a Lambda or "L" sound It's always a vowel or Sigma or Nu.
Ancient Greek has no "V" sound.
So the name is obviously not Greek.
It's actually "Nightengale" in one of the Elvish languages Tolkein was making up with his more-abundant-than-is-healthy spare time.
Oh, one other thing.
If the word had been borrowed from Greek via Latin, then it could have a mute consonant ending (Like the borrowed "Iliad") but the romans took the greek upsilon ("u" sound) and always transcribed it with a "Y".
So the Romans never had it, the Greeks never had it.
I guess you must know more about Greek mythology than the Greeks themselves did.
