Amelia McDonell-ParryJanuary 13, 2009 //

Seraphina Rose Elizabeth, according to People.com. Seraphina is the “feminine form of the Late Latin name Seraphinus, derived from the biblical word seraphim which was Hebrew in origin and meant ‘fiery ones.’” Might the little girl have red hair? The name may not be in line with what we predicted — colored, floral, or elderly in nature — but her two middle names are. Rose is, duh, a flower and a color, while Elizabeth is about as traditional a name as you can get. Anyway, congrats on getting a name baby! [People] Keep reading »

    What’s In A Name?

    Annika HarrisJuly 16, 2008 //

    Do you remember when you were a child and it was cool to have a cup, key chain or T-shirt with your name on it? Well, I never had that luxury, you see, because I have a rather unique name. I learned early on in life that I would never be able to walk into a gift shop and purchase anything with my name on it right off the rack. If I wanted a personalized key chain, they’d better have engraving. If I wanted a T-shirt, hopefully they had airbrushing. So as you may have guessed, I wasn’t one of those people who could say, “My name means blah, blah, blah,” either. But most of my life, I’ve been comforted with knowing that my mom always knew she would name me ‘Annika’ after reading Pippi Longstocking as a girl, even if she didn’t know the meaning. And I love being named after the best friend of the most unconventional and assertive redhead ever.
