the only thing that is significant about my name is that i considered it one of the greatest gifts i have ever recieved. I am my name and my name is who i am, it emcompases everything i am and every i want myself to be.

My first name is the name of a best friend my Mom had in a British boarding school. My middle name is my mother's first name. Heather Gay

My daughter's first name is Hubby's favorite Aunt's first name. Her middle name is my great-great grandmother's middle name. I wanted to name her completely after my great-great grandmother from when I was a teenager but then I met hubby and his sister already had the same name. In his words - He only wanted ONE Sarah Elizabeth in his life. One was enough. lol

My brother is named after my Dad.

I really enjoy family names and would use a family name long before some of the more unusual ones used today. I am glad I can take pride in my family and it's heritage and want to honor it with using the names again.

My first name is biblical. I was named after Benjamin, which means both 'Son of the Right Hand' and 'Son of Sorrow'. My family had been Pagan, but my mother converted to Christianity when she moved to this country.

I have three middle names. The first is Randall, my Grandfather's name.

The 2nd and 3rd are Padraig Pearse, a tribute to the Irish teacher, poet, and freedom fighter.

My last name is my Clan name, and means 'Clan of the Wolf's Head'.

I was named after an uncle. My second name is the last name of the doctor who delivered me.

My father's mother's maiden name was Gregory. That is my fathers middle name. My first name. My son's middle name.

I'm not going to push him to name his son that, but it would be cool.

gotta say that my name is meaningless

I'm named after ground-cover which is called Alyssum...it's little white or purple flowers that is usually planted around the large flowers to cover up the dirt. WooHoo! Thanks Mom!....ground-cover...... :thumbsup:
