I'll go first- I'm named after Christmas! ππ Yup, that little holiday that is right around the corner. My original due date was Christmas day, but I was fashionably late as always...
And yes- I usually got the ONE present a year from friends and relatives with a card that said "Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday." One year, my parents did something special and took the whole family to Maui to celebrate both Christmas and my 18th birthday (hence the picture of my dad and I above). It was the best 2 for 1 present I have ever received! So this time of year, every year, I think about the significance of my name.
What does your name mean?

Aw thank you! It's my favorite pic of him because in real life he always looks so stern, but in this picture he actually looks like his true goofy self π
Donβt necessarily remember the meaning behind my name so Iβll share something just as important. My mother named my oldest sister and myself; 6 children all together. π
My sister is my mothers favorite child... so if she is my motherβs favorite child and my mother named her and she only named one other child ; there has to be something special about me being named by her as well... π€·ββοΈ
I keep forgetting to tell you- One of my best friends in elementary school had the same name as you π She was so kind and witty. And now that I've known two people with that name, I can confirm that they truly are a "gift of god" π
What a beautiful photograph!My father died when i was young so i have no photos.
My name means Lily in Hebrew, and i think coincidentally, my grandmothers name was Lilian. My partners name means gift of God which i think shows huge parental love.Sopsx
I'm sorry about your father. I hope you still have good memories and many photos of the rest of your family since his passing. And I'm sure that he was there for all of it, even if it was just in spirit π
Lily is such a gorgeous name! And yes, your partner is absolutely adored by their parents with such a highly significant name like that. Thank you for sharing π
Thanks so much! Iβve been searching and my name maybe derived from harvest and abundance! Traditional past names were taken from mums family- my aunt Teresa!!
Iβm lovin my name now but as a kid I would only use Teresa π§
Itβs a very interesting activity and Iβm gonna persue my familyβs name meanings! The pic is so lovely and I also have lots of lovely pics of my great dad and also my family π
All the very best wishes for you and your family π π»π
Oh you are so welcome! And thank you for sharing! I hope you find out more neat and interesting facts π If you come across anything particularly noteworthy, feel free to share again!
Best wishes to you and your family as well π ππ
Sunflowers are just gorgeous, aren't they? My aunt loves sunflowers as well, so her whole kitchen is decked out with sunflower curtains and sunflower towels. Whenever I walk in there, I can't help but smile π»π

Well enjoy your night and stay far away from anything named Barrington!
Don't think there is anything super special about my name. My mum was 41 when I was born (unplanned surprise package). She had a rough labour and was groggy when the doctor asked for my name, she thought he said what was her name. I was supposed to be Jennifer but finished up as Alice. Actually not bad since it is also both grandma's name.
Oh my goodness π Your poor groggy mother! Alice is a wonderful name π And both of your grandmothers were named Alice? That is quite the coincidence!
Very cool! My parents did not know if I was going to be a boy or a girl (they wanted to be surprised), so they chose Nicholas as a potential name as well. If I had been a boy, we would both have the same name π
Hi, my name is self explanatory.It's Dawn.My uncle who was 13 when I was born actually suggested it as I was born around 6am.My sister 11 months later was named Gail.Don't know if it was windy when she was born!
Yes , perhaps we all should take a look at a names meaning before choosing one.
I always knew mine as being Hebrew for 'lily. In Persian it seems it means 'lily flower', and in Egyptian Coptic 'lotus flower' . In Hebrew Shoshana means 'lily' so I guess I'm going with 'lily'!
β’ in reply to
Lily wins! π But either way, whether it mean Lily or Lotus, both are beautiful flowers that signify wonderful things such as love, rebirth and wisdom.
I initially joined HU in the weight-loss forum - and wanted a short username to do with weight-loss. In this font, the lower-case letter "l" is the looks similar to the number "1" and like the capital letter "I" - so there are several ways you can spell "Slim".
Thank you! π You know it's an old picture because I have normal colored hair π
Great picture of you two! He looks like the coolest person to be around! I can see where your warm heart comes from...Nice π

You are very lucky CJasmin. He looks sooo chill.. thatβs whatβs up. Good peeps.π―

Thank you!
And excuse me, but... My last name means "prince" in English, so basically I am Christmas royalty which means that I decree you get ALL the points for creativity!!! (I seriously love your username... makes me smile everytime I see it pop up! π)
Aw, I'm sure he meant well and that he really does like your name π
How do you tell everyone apart when so many people/a dog share the same name? π

In Greek Baby Names the meaning of the name Faith is: Confidence; trust; belief. thats what my name means in English and Greek
β’ in reply to
Faith is such a phenomenal name. And it suits you so well! The fact that you have survived through so much- that horrible accident when you were just a baby, so many foster homes, etc. is a miracle. So the fact that you are named Faith is very fitting π

yeah i guess so. also the things that are going on right now
I am not sure what Robin could mean. Robin banks? No, that would mean jail time. Robin from the poor? No,too mean. Now if you call me Rob, still same meaning. Sunlife..... When I wake up in the morning (summertime) I usually go outside to get the sun to shine on my face. I feel like I'm looking into heaven looking at God. Btw this page picked my name.
