My first name means "white wave" in Celtic.  My last name means "water field" in French.  With a name like white wave water field, iis it any wonder I developed kidney disease?

Is your favorite color blue, too?

I had to look mine up - first middle, last, I get "God is gracious."  "God will judge."  "Gift of God."

This might make more sense if my parents had been the least bit religious!

Jennifer is either White wave or Fair one, depending on where at...
and my last name says:
 the son of Hudde, a pet form of Richard (rule, hard); descendant of Hugh (spirit, mind).

interesting stuff...
thank you for sharing the site :)

Funny

Darrell Meaning:  the descendant of little Deor (brave, bold).  My last name has no meaning...weird so I am a meaningless brave person.

my first name means honorable ruler
my middle name is a varaition of the month of May, although, I thought it was short for Mary.. although, in Hebrew, it means bitter.. *L*
My last name means son of Harry, home, or ruler

of course, my nickname showed up as a boys name, but I figured it would, even though I've been Riki most of my life
