Who gave you your name? What is it's origin? Do you know it's meaning? My name is given by my auntie. They're thinking of name that start with P and I "coz my older brother's name start also with P.I. My mother said Princess Ira then my aunt said Princess Ivy is more good to hear so that's it, that's my name.

Well, my name was given to me by my parents.By the way, my name is ALEXANDER. I didnt ask my parents where they get it. Then later, after reading some of my father's note, i know the reason why my father gave it to me. I learned that my father's favorite subject is history. I think that all of us know ALEXANDER THE GREAT.And after that I assume that my father want me to be the best like ATG.

Yes, I know. My name was given by a unkown grandmother. My father told me that after my birth, he had a dream. In that dream, a grandmother told him that to name me my corrent name and also gave a name to my brother. At that time, we still didn't know that there would be my brother. My father thought it as a hint and the names are pretty good so I had the name from a dream.

Mine is Rachelle. and my mom chose the name. It came from a dr. friend of hers that moved to Montana..my dad agreed because his name was Ray...so it kinda goes! I believe that it means an ewe or female sheep. I've always thought it was french, but in the baby names dictionary-it's showing as hebrew.
