Mine is Carolan (a joyous song on the green bough.....how sickening is that?!)

Please tell me if the meaning to your name is a true reflection on you?

  1. My name means beautiful in spanish.

    Well my parents had high hopes any way. :)


  2. "Healer." Apparently someone's been had.

  3. Amanda--Latin, meaning lovable.

  4. Mine means "pure one"...I always found it somewhat ironic because I didn't choose the "sexual purity" path.  ...but in a way I've come to see it as a good description of my faith...pure in that I've always protected it from contamination by man-made doctrines and interpretations of God's word.

  5. Christopher - "Bearer of Christ"

    Just as long as it's not "Bearer of his followers".

  6. Mine means gift, offering.  Well, I don't know if it's a reflection of me...unless I'm a 'gift' to somebody out there.

    I think the name suits me even if the meaning doesn't.  :)

  7. My first name is Daniel and is Hebrew in origin. I believe it means something like "God is my judge" or that 'God will judge me"

    edit:

    My last name is an Anglicanized form of an Irish surname possibly "Diamosaugh" (spelling?) and is now just called "Dempsey". I think it means "pride" or "proud".I have no idea how to pronouce or spell it in its original form.

  8. Mine means "The Noble One"...

    I'm sure that it's probably true on some level, even if it's just in my head.

    I AM A NOBLEWOMAN! NOBLE! Silly peasants... make me a sammich!

  9. Cynthia means from Kynthos (just check the meaning in the web). And that is name of one of the cult that worships Apollo in Ancient Greece. So it's absolutely NOT me.....

  10. It comes from a Greek myth.  She was a character who could see the future and knew about the Trojan horse and tried warning everyone but they didn't believe her.

    It means "helper of men/disbelieved by men."

    I think the meaning is kind of funny.  But I don't think it's particularly reflective of me.

  11. Nah... my name doesn't mean anything besides that my mother was into "Flower Power" for a second.

  12. Mine means "dark" or "black". What's funny is that my middle name means "woeful" - I don't know if my parents were just morbid or uninformed.

    I guess I would have made an excellent goth, but no, this is not an accurate reflection.

  13. Mary = Star of the Sea

    Another website says:

    The meaning is not known for certain, but there are several theories including "sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", and "wished for child". However it was most likely originally an Egyptian name, perhaps derived in part from mry "beloved" or mr "love".

    I've been called Amy (which means beloved) all my life so I like that. But I do have a love for large bodies of water. I grew up on the beach (Lake Erie).

  14. My first name comes fromt the Greek for "I have Christ[in me]"

  15. Mine means a wild boar.

  16. Mine means "the act of thinking."

    Appropriate for an atheist.

    My last name is a common Muslim name.  How ironic.

    ____

  17. Michelle, feminine form of Michael  a question asking Who is like God?

    meaning can anyone truly be like God (asking that of Lucifer).

    I have no idea if it is or isn't, I never thought of it before.

  18. Elizabeth means consecrated by god.  Pretty ironic huh?

  19. Mine is Corinna. Means fair maiden in the old school though I am not always fair as sometimes I like a little tanning though not always on my own hide.

    Most pleased to meet a joyous song on the green bough anytime. My hat is off to you my lady Carolan.

  20. My first name is Amanda-lovable, or worthy of love

    Middle name is Dianne-Heavenly or divine

    I am pretty lovable and depending on who you ask, maybe, just maybe, I am heavenly...lol


  21. My name means "Guardian" - and it makes sense in a weird way.  I am the Guardian against the overly serious, and just plain old bUll@hIt!

  22. mine means beloved.

    i think?

    You'd have to ask the people closest to me.

    i hope so.

  23. Julie means youthful. Makes perfect sense, I'm 31, but look 16. I'm not even kidding, this is what I was guessed as three days ago.
