Greek for “joy” (this meaning why my parents chose it) or Latin for "beloved.

There’s also a Gaelic version that means “best friend” or similar.

There’s also a valkyrie with a similar name, although the root is different and her name meaning is disputed, but theorised as either “the wild one” or “the curly haired one” (the later fits me well haha).

I also learnt a few years ago that it means “possum” in one of the aboriginal languages.

So I have lots of options on any given day depending on how I feel. :laughing:

I don’t know what my birth name means, it’s just a “by-product” of my late aunt’s name, from what I was told, but my “other” name means “In olden times” or “[name_m]Long[/name_m] ago”,& could also mean "Witch"or “Sorcery” :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

My first name means ‘exalted one’. First middle is a [name_f]Mary[/name_f] variant so it means whatever you think that [name_f]Mary[/name_f] means and second middle means ‘noble’.

‘Universal’ and ‘Renowned warrior’ - the middle meaning is a bit more interesting to me!
