2. Etymology

The Woodlandia Shirley (sign: $; code: WAS; also abbreviated WAS$ and referred to as the shirley, Woodlandic shirley, Woodlandian shirley, Woodlander shirley, or Woodlandic dollar) is the official currency of the Principality of Woodlandia. Within the Principality of Woodlandia, the shirley is almost always abbreviated with the dollar sign ($), with WAS$ sometimes used to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies.

The Woodlandia shirley was name in honor of Her Majesty Dowager Queen Shirley, grandmother to Prince Shawn of the Principality of Woodlandia. The word shirley originates from the English place-name shirley, which itself, derived from the Old English words scire (shire), scīr (bright, clear,) and lēah (wood, clearing, meadow, enclosure). The name Shirley makes reference to the open space where the moot (an early English assembly of freeman which met to administer justice and discuss community issues) was held.
