Parker = Park Keeper

So...he will be a famous park keeper? sweet.

Josephine Malaya means "she will increase freedom." Josephine is "she will increase" and Malaya is "freedom" in Tagalog.?
Damn right she will. ?
Deanna: Its source is Diviana, a Latin name meaning "Goddess." In Old English it means ?Valley? or ?Church Leader.?
Rose: ?Rose,? ?Rose Bush? (okay, that one's obvious & boring)
luella = elf
makes me giggle everytime i think of it. we totally called her 'luelfa' for the first few days (she looked like a wee elf
and couldn't believe it when we finally looked up the meaning of her name.
McKayla = Who is like God
Maureen = Sea of bitterness.
Wah????? It's my middle name....hmm...haven't looked up the 'meaning' before....
Liam - the irish meaning is 'strong-willed warrior', it also has a jewish meaning 'my nation, my people'
Mugavu - its the name of his/our sub-tribe in Africa and the meaning of that name is actually a name of a bird which is also the national bird of Uganda.
Buki - 'death'... when my FIL was born all his previous siblings had died at birth and his parents thought he would die to, so they gave him this name which has become our family name... how nice, eh?
Owen-Desire Born James-Supplanter
Benjamin - right hand son

So, I guess, altogether:
God will increase his gift of victory to his people.
Ashlyn= Combination Of Ashley And Lynn
Shes going to have fun in the 4th grade when everyone looks up there name and has some spiritual meaning or some greek fighter/warrior stuff
Hmmm I am going to have to think of a good meaning for that.
Ethan = Strong
Matthew = gift from god
Together, we think it means Powerful Gift from God
Clara = Illustrious, Valerie (her middle name) = strength
For my daughter's name:
Jordan - flowing downward
Lynn - idol /waterfall/snake/lime tree. Depends which language/variant you use.
Funny, Lynn is also my middle name and I have never bothered to look up the meaning.
She'll probably be in a class full of children named Breelee, and Brynlee, and Raybreelees, so I wouldn't worry. ?
Caroline: Beautiful Woman
Leigh: Field
Liliana - Combination of Lilly and Anna (duh - except we pronounce it Lily - ah - na)
Elisabeth - God is my oath
