Behind the Name

One day while bored in French during year 11, years ago, I was browsing the dictionary. I looked up random words in english, finding the french equivalent. One of them was 'thistle', which is Chardon in french.

Thistle can be used to describe me. I'm "beautiful" but very prickly and it's hard to get close to me and especially hard to keep hold of me. I am also very artistic. So put it together and you have Artistic Chardon.
