What's in a name?
Have you ever wondered what your name "means"?
While researching baby names with a friend I just discovered that my full name means: Virginal/Pure Gracious Place where thornbushes grew. Does anyone else know what their name means?

Seems my name is French/German/Scottish in origin - depending on where you look and generally means noble and/or kind. I'm sure when I looked years ago it meant warrior/warlike. Think that earlier meaning is more me

My name is a given name that comes from Hebrew: מִיכָאֵל / מיכאל, meaning "Who is like God?".

My first name means Greatest, and my middle name comes from the Greek and is a variant of Hyacinth...
However I prefer the hebrew tranlsation of my name which means "Beautiful river, flowing softly". Now, that I like!! MadCat

My name means Crazy, Insane, bonkers....
 My real name, Clive, actually doesn't mean anything  it's just a derivation of Cliff, which means Cliff Dweller... Sort of like a Lemming ????
