What's your real name? Get to know everyone!

[brokenxbeauty]

My name is Rachel which means "little lamb" or "ewe" in Hebrew, but I think little lamb sounds much prettier. My middle name is Nicole which is the french, feminine form of Nicholas, a Greek name (Nicholas meaning "victory of the people.")

 

[MrsMay]

My name is Jennifer, but almost everyone calls me Jenny, or close friends call me Jen.

My middle name is Rose. I think my last name is kinda obvious by my screen name

 

[laperle]

I was registered Mariana, which is the portuguese (and many other languages) version of Marianne or Marian. It's just Mary + Anne! Mariana can also be related to Mary, mother of Jesus - and all this religious thing.

It's soooo popular here in Brazil. I don't like it, 'cos there's nothing to do with my unique personality.

Anyway, every person seems to call me in crazy different ways they create, such as: Who (my bro), Flor (Flower in portuguese - my mom), Ani (my dad and a few friends), Marie, Mary, Maricota, Marizinha, Maribeau, Mary Poppins, Marijuana (no, I don't smoke pot!), Nana, Mary Crazy (no comments!), M. or the most common nickname for my name Mari. There are more, I can't even remember them all.

I wish my mom would have chosen Flor. It's pretty and can be easily pronouced in other languages.

At least, she dropped Camilla (her first choice) when I've apeeared to her for the first time.

Anyway, I prefer Mari, Ani or Marie.

I don't have a middle name. They'r not really common here in Brazil. Instead, we have our mother's maiden name as second last name.

 

[sonnebutti]

[Carlyx]

[Soulful]

My name is Daniela ... the female version of "Daniel" and it means "God is my judge"

My family is not really religious though...

 

[vivaXglamlove]

My name is Amy and it means beloved.

 

[joraye]

JoRaye - one word, one name. Pronounced just the way it looks -JOE RAY. You wouldn't believe some of the stuff I've heard - Jaa Ray, JewRay, JahRay, it boggles my mind. Since this seems to confuse anyone it comes in contact with, I commonly go by Jo, and people call me JoJo.

My birth certificate makes it look like I've had any actual name change, since I was born Jo Raye (Raye as my middle name) and it had to be changed.

Since there's like 8 of us in the world, you can't find name meanings, and I don't like the ones for Joe and Ray.

Where it came from?
Granpap on mom's side: Joe
Granpap on dad's side: Ray
Dad's middle name: Ray

There ya go.

When I get married and change my name, my friends want me to adopt of a middle name of Raye, so they can call me "JoRaye-RAYE!"

my name is Zehava. people who pronounce it correctly the first time get secret brownie points in my mind. Z'-haw-vah. not Zehayvah. nor Zahara or Zehayvia. please don't call me Zee unless i invite you to. and don't call me Zed because that's the proper Canadian pronunciation of the letter. hate that!

it's hebrew. it means golden.

ooh la la! I love your guys' names.

On paper, I'm Sarah Elizabeth. Buuut:

-To the Russky side of my family it's Cerafima (Serafima...Easier to spell in cyrillic...) which is basically a firey angel. Purty!
-To the Italian side of my family it's more like Sera, as in, evening.
-To my teacher and anyone in ballet it's Sarinka, which is the diminutive of Sarah.

My middle name is my mom's first name, which is actually Elisabetta, but we anglicized it since everyone anglicized hers anyway.


Annnd my last name is a really standard name amongst Russian Jews.
