'Mother' was a form of address for a mother, and it could also refer to an unmarried daughter. In different regions and different eras, the meaning of 'mother' might be different. For example, in the Ningpo dialect,'mother' was the name for grandmother. During the Tang Dynasty,'Mother' could also be used to address one's mother, or even 'Niangniang'. In addition,'mother' could also refer to a young lady or an unmarried daughter. In short, the word 'mother' was a polysemous word, and its specific meaning depended on the context and the place where it was used.
In ancient texts, there were many ways to address a mother:
Madam: It means the mother of a wife or someone else's mother.

These are some of the common names of mothers in ancient Chinese. The names of mothers in different cultures and social backgrounds may be different.
The movie and the book 'The Neverending Story' don't really focus on naming Bastian's mother. It seems that the story is more centered around Bastian's adventures in Fantasia rather than his mother's name or her own story. So, unfortunately, we don't have a name for her.
Sorry, I don't know the mother's name off the top of my head. Maybe it's mentioned in a specific chapter or part of the story that you could re-examine.
