What is the origin of your name?

Heres mine:

The girl's name Shayla
sha(y)la\ is pronounced SHAY-lah. It is of Gaelic origin, and its meaning is "from the fairy palace". A variant of Sheila (Irish, Gaelic) "blind". Also possibly a short form of Micheala, from Michael (Hebrew)

The girl's name Natalia \n(a)-ta-lia\ is a variant of Natalie (Latin) and Natalya (Latin), and the meaning of Natalia is "birthday".

:)
 
I just love your name Shayla. I love it even more it is a short form of Micheala.
Another name that I just absolutely love.


Any way my first name is Jennifer. I had never like my first name because it was just too dead common when I was in school. Well that what happens when your mother gives you a name that was the second most popular girl name of the 80s. Even though I don't like the name Jennifer. Which means White, fair, smooth I do how ever love where it originated from. Jennifer is of Cornish form of the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar or Guinevere.

In Arthurian legend she was the beautiful wife of King Arthur who engaged in an adulterous affair with Sir Lancelot. Her betrayal of her husband with Mordred prompted the battle of Camlann, which led to the deaths of both Mordred and Arthur.

King Arthur has always been one of my absolute favorite stories. Then again I pretty much love any story that has do with England's HIStory.


My middle name is the name that I really love it is Marie. Which is of French, Czech, German, English, Scandinavian origion. It is another form of Mary. Meaning "star of the sea" or "sea of bitterness".


Yeah I know my first 2 initials is MJ and that is what I so love about it. Cause I have the same first 2 initials as Michael except in reversed. Another reason why I love my middle name so much more than my first name. Is because Michael did a song called Maria (You Were The Only One). And Maria is very close to Marie. Maria is one of my absolute favorite songs that he did back in the 70s. If I had enough money I would have my name leagally changed to Michaela Josephine. Since it is the female form of Michael's first 2 names. My last name I might keep because I kind of like it. Cause my last name is of 7 letters and it does end in a N just like Michael's last name.
 
Ohh I love this, it's very interesting.


The girl's name Bianca \bi(an)-ca\ is pronounced bee-AHNK-ah. It is of Italian origin, and its meaning is "white, pure". Variant of Blanche (French).

Also made famous by former Rolling Stone wife Bianca Jagger, who was a Nicaraguan fashion model, peace worker, and diplomat. The name is appropriate for a fair-haired baby.
