Descriptions:

Ayah Hebrew name meaning falcon.

Bellus Latin word for pretty, handsome, charming.

Braddock Braddock Bay is home to various Upstate New York birds.
 
Frightful was the main character of the beautiful peregrine falcon in Jean Craighead George's book Frightful's Mountain.
 
Infinity means forever or never ending. Because of this new falcon, there is one more added to this forever going species.

Kiley Gaelic for Grace or graceful.

Nikola Tesla Often overlooked, Tesla seems to have had many more electrical concepts than his competition.  Although Tesla was a man, the name (in our culture) can be viewed as feminine also. 

Phoenix According to Greek mythology a phoenix is a bird that regenerates rising from the ashes to be born again. This symbolizes the amazing recovery of the Peregrine Falcon population and the recent revitalization of Downtown Rochester, which is now becoming an amazing place to even just spend time.
 
Soar This is what falcons do.

Spirit The feeling of exuberance and patriotism.

Three polls have been posted (male name, female name, gender-neutral name). The voting period ends Thursday night at 11:59 PM EDT.

One of this year's eyases will be given either an appropriate gender-specific name or a gender-neutral name, whichever receives the most votes. In case of a tie, the number of times each of the 2 names was submitted will be used as a tie breaker. If that is a tie too, a coin will be flipped.
