    My name means Dark-haired, or dark complected. I have also read that it means From Ciar's People Or The County Of Kerry. I was named after the county Kerry but I am not that dark haired, unless you consider brown dark

    My name is Kelly, which I'm told means Warrior Princess and Bright headed one.

    I'd say it describes me, as I am an angry Ginger! lol:mad:

    I've had a hard time finding much information about Jessamin, except that it's maybe a variant of Jasmine.

    My first name is really Patricia - derived from the Latin "pater" meaning father (which I am definitely not, haha!). A "patrician" is, in short, a snobby rich person (an aristocrat). However, they were also the "fathers" of society, meaning they provided for the peasants. I'm not really sure how much it describes me!

    Why do you think that aristocrats are snobby?! :laugh: In my experience, it's the middle-classes who are the snobs! Nobles have no reason to be snobbish. And the working classes of course, often exhibit a lot of inverted snobbery!

    Patricians actually governed cities, therefore couldn't have provided for peasants because the latter were rural-based! Just sayin'! While they may have been nobility, in a lot of states (such as Venexia and some Scandinavian ones), that nobility was actually the mercantile elite!

    The word snob actually comes from the name given to shoemakers in the 18th century - the leather aprons they wore were called snobs. I suspect it came to have its current meaning due to some levels of shoemakers believing they were better than others...although I could be wrong about that! I believe Thackeray may have had something to do with its current connotations too. :ohwell:

    Strange my name is Tricia.
    It is Latin for Noble.

    does not fit me at all!

    According to most standard name dictionaries, Ann is a derivation of Anne, is a derivation of Anna, is a derivation of Hannah, meaning grace or favour.

    Having just looked at the urban dictionary definitions though, the first few of which suggest that Ann's are the most bootylicious creatures on the planet, I think I'll be using these definitions from now on!! I particularly liked this definition:

    "The most unbelievably sexy woman that has ever lived.

    Long dark hair, gorgeous eyes, a killer body, a beautiful laugh and the sexiest voice that ever carried the first syllable.

    Men should kiss the ground that her shadow touches."

    Emmanuel meaning God With Us. Jesus was also called Immanuel and I have healed the sick, walked IN water, fed the hungry, visited the shut in, think most religious movements are only out to make money, I wrote in the sand, and I have woke up from a dead sleep after 3 hours before. Now if I can only figure out how to do that water into wine stuff, I may be able to live up to my namesake. Just Jokes y'all. Not Blaspheming.

    My name is Lynette, but pronounced Ly-nae (Blame my Dominican mother for that one :bigsmile: )

    Lynette (Spanish Origin) - mean Pretty one (which is the correct spelling)

    Looked up Lynae and this is what I got

    ********************************************************************************************************

    Lynae meaning and name origin

    Lynae \l(y)-

    nae\ as a girl's name is a variant of Linnea (Scandinavian) and Lynn (English), and the meaning of Lynae is "lime or linden tree".


    Lime or Linden tree....OK if thats what it mean, this has nothing to do with me, sooooooooooooo my name does NOT describe me
