Han's sport of Blue Angel, a large showy plant with chartruse margins in spring that gradually change to creamy white. This will grow 20x40 inches and makes an imposing specimen. Hosta names are a culture unto themselves, personally I would have gone with Avenging Angel or Angel of Death, or perhaps Mindfreak for a more obtuse reference, I'm not that much into 50's do wap.
