Default Re: Meaning of your name?

Yep...
Possibly derived from Hebrew דוד (dvd) meaning "beloved". David was the second and greatest of the kings of Israel, ruling in the 10th century BC. Several stories about him are told in the Old Testament, including his defeat of Goliath, a giant Philistine. Jesus was supposedly descended from him.Famous bearers of this name include the 5th-century patron saint of Wales, two kings of Scotland, empiricist philosopher David Hume, and explorer David Livingstone. This is also the name of the hero of Charles Dickens' semiautobiographical novel 'David Copperfield'.

Marie.

And no, it's more of a lineage thing. My dad wanted me to have a French middle name, and my mom's middle name was French, so he chose that one. My mother wanted my middle name to be Ann, thus Ann(e)-Marie was conceived.

won't you help to sing

these songs of freedom?

Default Re: Meaning of your name?

Hm, interesting. My name is Ana. (spelled like that) Not many people know how to pronounce it correctly, though, so I settled with having it pronounced as Anna. I still find it somewhat funny that it means Merciful.

I do have a version of middle name, though...it's not as official as middle name in Western countries. It's Vesna, it means "messenger" and it's also a name of Slavic goddess of spring.

My middle name is Daniel, which isn't that great of a name as far as I'm concerned.
