Whats in a name
The hawaiian airlines are popular because of the name hawaii, which sells their airline tickets more than that of spirit airline or even the northwest airlines. The indian airlines experience a similar case with northwest airline.
I was visiting a friends blog here and while reading it I learned that her son’s name means “Firery One”. Well, I’ve known this person (cyberly) for 9years and NEVER knew the meaning of her son’s name yet, the friend uses fireyone as a username on the online forums we post together one.
After finding out the meaning to her son’s name and reading how her son truly lives up to his “fiery” meaning I decided to post about the meanings of my 3 childrens name.
!st up is my oldest (20)
Shayna
Meaning: Beautiful
Gender: Female
Origin: Hebrew
She happens to be beautiful both inside and out!
Next we have: my 16yo
Isreal (she is a female) (here is the meaning for IsrAel)
Meaning: Prince Of God
Gender: Male
Origin: Hebrew
Well, she is truly of GOD! She has been involved in church her FULL life, sings in the choir, dances in the church dance troop, participates in the Youth Programs AND is an usher. She spents aproximately 10hr a week in church!
Last but not least is my 8yo:
Isaac
Meaning: He Will Laugh
Gender: Male
Origin: Hebrew
WOW did they get this right. Isaac is my “jokester” he has a wonderful sense of humor, is usually the live of any party and is the best “cheerer-upper” that I know!
How fitting that all of my childrens have strong ties to the meanings of their names.
I used the tool here to quickly search the meanings of the names. I would love to see comments with the meanings of the names of yourself and/or your loved one.
Oh and before I go. I have a unique name Aurelia (pronounced Ah-real-lee-ya) and that is Latin for Golden
Also we are African American yet I was Brought up in a Jewish Household until the age of 13 and ALL of my children have Hebrew names.

Great idea! My oldest AJ is 16 and his first name is Alexander which is from the Greek and it means “defend man or helper of mankind” and Brehane is 4 and his name is Ethopian and it means “My Light”.
I can say that both of my children are truly living out the meaning of their names.

Aww. I’ve inspired a blog!
My name means regal, royalty, or according to your site, king’s heir. I’ve always considered myself to be a regal sort. Ok, maybe not really, lol
