Answer:
In the "Hunger Games" series by Suzanne Collins, Katniss Everdeen gets her name from the "katniss" plant (scientific name: Sagittaria latifolia). The plant was important to her survival as a source of food in the districts where she lived, and its importance is a recurring theme throughout the series. The name "Katniss" symbolizes hope, strength, and resilience, and eventually becomes synonymous with the rebellion against the Capitol.
