stargazer
This term carries a romanticized or whimsical quality when referring to people, often evoking a sense of wonder, curiosity, or longing. While it can describe a professional astronomer, it more frequently suggests an amateur enthusiast or a dreamer who finds solace in the night sky.
In biological contexts, the word is purely descriptive of physical orientation. For the fish and the lily, the name derives from the upward-facing position of the eyes or blooms, shifting the meaning from an active pursuit of observation to a passive physical state.
