    If you don't know, there's hundreds of sites where you can find out. Go look it up. :p

    My first name means "pure/virginal"

    My middle name means "light"

    My other middle name means "winner/victor/conquerer etc."

    Ahaha... the first one cracks me up. Pure and virginal. :D How ironic. :D

    You know my name already... I have a mug on my desk that was my grandfather's as he too had the same name. I gave this to him after finding it at a pottery. I cut a hole into my desk and inlaid it into the top... it's so snug, I don't want to get it out to type... sooooo... lots of leaning and walking around to the side here as my light is too dim to ma... *no it isn't, you just didn't bother to look*

    Meaning prosperous.

    Your will to succeed
    Is foretold within your name
    For there's nothing can stop you
    One you've set your aim
    You know the way to
    Make a chore seem like fun
    You get things to happen
    You see thingsk get done
    You'll prosper from
    Each Idea you generate
    And reap rich rewards
    From all that you create

    I hope those rewards aren't just useless "things" in life. I'd be much happier if I there were more meanings in things, but that only depends on what you decide and what you view things as, so... as I've said before, it's your choice take it with a grain of salt :D

    okay, my first name (stephanie) is the feminine version of Stephen. It comes from the Greek work Stephanos which means crown. :p

    My middle name (Lenorah) is the short form of Eleonora, which is the Italian form of Eleanor, and now it gets weird...... From the French form of the Provençal name Alienor, which is most likely a Germanic name of unknown meaning, though it is possibly a form of HELEN

    soooo....we go see what helen means.......Possibly from either Greek helene "torch" or "corposant", or Greek selene "moon".

    Most likely my middle name doesn't mean shit. :p

    Helen is such an old name, it was probably something dreamed up possibly thousands of years ago when a bunch of people were stoned... it was probably some odd noise that was made... hugchhhhhhhhhhhhhelen.... that sounds rather jewish if I say it like that, but for some reason, it just appears Germanic. Then again, I've been in moments where its been "That sounds rather Germanic".... "Nooo, it's Welsh"...

    :p

    yeah that's something I've never understood. if you're gonna call your kid "steVen", then why even bother with the ph? It's an F sound, dammit!
