That's interesting. Does it have an English or other language equivalent like Christoph/Kristov or Franz-Joseph Fritz-Joseph?
Frithjof, however, is old Norse (language of the vikings) meaning something along the lines of "thief of peace".

I really like your name too, by the way. I don't know if I pronounce it correctly, but I can't seem to make it sound not cute.

Do you have a sister named Agnieszka?
Do you have a sister named Agnieszka?No. If I had sister Agnieszka, it would be easy. I don't know why.
Agnieszka is Polish form of Greek name.
Latinized form of the Greek name ‘Αγνη (Hagne), derived from Greek ‘αγνος (hagnos) meaning "chaste". Saint Agnes was a virgin martyred during the persecutions of the Roman emperor Diocletian. The name became associated with Latin agnus "lamb", resulting in the saint's frequent depiction with a lamb by her side. Due to her renown, the name became common in Christian Europe, being especially popular in England in the Middle Ages.

I don't know what to tell them, lol.Your name is Greek.
You can tell them it's great to feel like princess
I have name like Russian queen and I think it's great. She was one of the best superiors in the world.
My Mum was reading her biography during pregnancy and it inspired her. She gave up names like Helga or Michalina and luckily I'm Katja

That's even more interesting
If you don't have a sister named Agnieszka, I wonder what makes people making such mistake.
I think my name suits me very well, since am a quiet and calm person
As for anagrams, I haven't find any I'd like enough yet.

Mine's John, after my grandfather, and indirectly right back to the very first person ever to have my surname, who was also John Johnston. Pedigree, man.
