My first name means "pure joy." I'm not amused by that.

My last name means "famous warrior." It fits me way better because thats what I want to be. Well, in a way.

"Pure".

Which doesn't really descrbe my outward appearance.

I read somewhere that it meant "mild" or "pleasant". I read somewhere else that it was a combination of the names "Melissa" and "Lucinda". Another source says it means "honey" .

First name means Life, middle name means Lovable, last name means, um, Bent Nose. Hee, yeah. :roll:

The funniest thing is that it's one of those surnames that get used as first names a lot, and I can't help but wonder if so many people would still call their little boys/girls that if they knew what it meant.

My first name means light, my middle names are a tree and an Irish name meaning "ruddy" and my last name can mean either "bog," "Moor," or "dark-skinned." (Ironically, I am pasty white thanks to the fact that I am mostly of Irish extraction.)

My real first name means pure or pure and virginal, my real last name means milk pail or village or one of the leaders.

My whole name means "Leader of the bitter-sweet song" in one translation. Another translation for just my first name is "she who has no equal". No ego problems there... :lol:

Gender: Masculine (I'm female)

Usage: Welsh

Means "white, fair, blessed" in Welsh.

This is as close as I can get to my REAL first name. I searched it in 2 databases and they both say "Name not found" My parents don't drink or I would swear they were drunk when they named me. I hate my first name so much that its not even on my kids birth certificates and I NEVER use it.

My 1st name (No, not Lab Pet! The legal name) = Beloved.

My French last name is easily translated = of the Beautiful.
My last name is 2 words, the 1st word = of the, 2nd = Beautiful

My middle name means = the Consecrated.

However, Lab Pet = the Pet of the Laboratory (ie: The laboratory is my realm) QED

But, I like my legal 1st name too.

(Zara, you and I have the same 1st name, I think! Or at least w/ the same Latin meaning).

My cat's name is Tesla. From Nikola Tesla.
