Very interesting. I ...I never thought to do this. Very interesting. I looked up my name and here is what it means: The girl's name Juliana is of Latin origin, and its meaning is "youthful; Jove's child". Feminine form of Julius or Julian. First used in the early Christian era. Saint Juliana of Florence (14th century). Also a royal name in the Netherlands.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00621495013558045339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123460818686262606.post-23764552305749303502009-02-18T12:39:00.000-08:002009-02-18T12:39:00.000-08:00Well, all I've ever heard of mine is that it means...Well, all I've ever heard of mine is that it means "ewe" or "lamb"...<BR/>"The girl's name Rachel \r(a)-chel\ is pronounced RAY-chel. It is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "ewe, female sheep". Biblical: Jacob's wife, described as being "beautiful in form and countenance".<BR/><BR/>It's funny, because I do like the name Jacob or Jake for a little boy's name... kind of strange when you think about it.<BR/><BR/>I also looked up the character Rebecca from the eponymous book (which is one of my favorites!) - <BR/>"The girl's name Rebecca \r(e)-bec-ca, reb(e)-cca\ is pronounced ree-BEK-ah. It is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "to bind". Biblical: Rebekah, noted in the Genesis account as a maiden of beauty, modesty, and kindness, became the wife of Abraham's son, Isaac."<BR/><BR/>I guess you could say that in the book Rebecca bound Max and Mrs. De Winter closer together by the end of the book.<BR/><BR/>P.S. - I totally think you could carry off that new haircut! I really really like it!!!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209533406055486161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123460818686262606.post-29316001143232695972009-02-18T07:06:00.000-08:002009-02-18T07:06:00.000-08:00The few baby names I have chosen have both been fr...The few baby names I have chosen have both been from books (actually both from vampire books so go figure).<BR/><BR/>But my name is hilarious at baby name sites. It either means "Beyond Borders" "River Princess" or "Thorny Cactus"<BR/><BR/>I like the last one best, he he he.Ellen Minthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03208244458086146065noreply@blogger.com
