Sarah, it means princess. :flutter: It was very much chosen for being a 'strong' Biblical name. Even our cat was called Isaiah. :indiff:


Sarah, the wife of Abraham. It was formerly Sarai. God changed it to Sarah. :biggrin:

When a housemate of mine at uni found out it used to be Sarai, she insisted on calling me that for about a week. :colonhash:
Analysis my full name and I am " the alright garden of god" didn't do middle name though.
Eva. My dad says it's for original sin. My mum gave the more honest answer of "full of life" :lol:

My middle name is Catherine and means "pure" :yep:
Rachel means ewe (a female sheep) :rolleyes:
Oscar, from Old English for "god's weapon" (os gar), probably coming from Old Norse.

Ironic considering I'm a vocal antitheist :mmm:

James - supplant, replace. Boring meaning.

My alternate username has better meaning, the Celtic name Vercingetorix which means 'King over warriors' which I probably should have used as my TSR username. :/
