Today is Tina Fey's birthday, and Microsoft Rewards told me that her full name is "Elizabeth Stamatina Fey." So I looked up the meaning behind 'Stamatina,' and found its root is the Greek word for "Stop." http://soulweave.blogspot.com/2017/05/whoda-known-thats-short-for-stamatina.html
Without much thought about it, I posted it in this blog-entry but ... is it 'the name for a family that lives at- & plays host at-a rest-stop on a big trade route?' (I know its the feminine-form of the name of a Greek Orthodox Saint, but where did he get the name from?)
