Natu: Nadzieja | Xatu: Esperanza
Some commentary about their name relevance and inspirations:
They both have differing levels of foresight and perspectives about it.
The Natu, Nadzieja only has a vague feeling about the future, but invests and trusts in it believing in the best. So, she sows seed both physically and literally, as she's definitely one to tend to the garden. Her name is Polish in origin, meaning "hope" in a context that seems to be aligned with ideals and aspirations.
The Xatu, Esperanza, pretty much isn't surprised by anything, as she's got much better pattern recognition and cognition to predict things to come, which makes it difficult for her to really find excitement or joy when she gets too far into rumination. Esperanza's name is Spanish in origin, also having meanings of hope, however the intentionality and meaning in this case are more in line with "longsuffering and patience" as the word is more often referring to perseverance and faith in difficult times.
As such, they both represent the kākāpō, which seems to be part of Natu and Xatu's inspiration-- the bird was thought to be able to predict the future, I guess.
