Does your name fit you?

CAROL - Song of happiness
DEE DEE - Dark
BONACCI - no meaning found
TRACY - Brave
LYNN - Waterfall
LINDA - Pretty one
JUDY - Praised
SHIRLEY - Bright meadow
JOAN - Gift from G-D

BEVERLY - Near the meadow of the beaver
JENNIFER - Fair one
LANI - Heaven
JODI - Praised
HEIDI - Honorable
KATHY - Virginal

MAUREEN - Wished for

I swear I didn't make any of these up!!

As for my name, I gasped. My mom had a number of miscarriages prior to my birth. I was wished for everyday. Awww, how sappy!!!!

PS...if I missed anyone I profusely apologize

Tina~in_ut said...

oh....Hi everybody~ (no moaning here!!!!)

DeeDee said...

ungrateful brat!! Screaming at me while I writhe in my sick bed....why don't you get me some chicken soup ya bitch....

Dianne/Denver said...

What the heck is a Celestial Hunter? I don't feel like one regardless of what it is....j/s.

You guys are so funny with all the names you come up with....SHIRLEY AND MO ...... you both do some good googling! Thanks for doing that for us.

I was just on my way out the door to PT when they called me and told me I was supposed to be there at 2:30...I have 3 on my calendar so now I am all dressed up and no where to go!!

MARY: Glad you are back safe and sound. Did you have a wonderful trip and is your niece all settled over there now for school? (that is what she was doing, right?)

TINA: What does GYNH stand for....I can't figure it out for the life of me.

DEEDEE: I hope you get feeling much better. Are you taking all your meds and gargling? Cover up with your blankie and sleep...best thing for you.

JODI; You have a busy weekend with the Badgers, Packers and Broncos. We are playing Tennessee Titans so maybe the game will be on your station later in the day. I don't know how they figure out what games to play when...do you?

Congrats on first CHICHI....you are up and at em' early today...but then again you don't sleep much so you should be first every day!!!

EBJ: I keep meaning to ask you how your husband is doing with the foot and is he well now? Did they decide he didn't have to have surgery?

Ok Bachelor fans....do you see who the new bachelor is for this season? Brad Womack!! He's the guy that went through the whole thing and didn't pick anyone. He is the one that owns some bars in Texas. They must be running out of people to be taking old ones back on.

Everyone have a good afternoon.

Jodi said...

DIANNE - Busy weekend indeed!! Hoping both our teams redeem themselves!!

MARY - GO BADGERS!!

EBJ - LOL @ praise me baby ♥

TINA - How rude!! Lately my brats have been doing the same thing....grrr!!!

sacBarb said...

I guess I could be considered stranger than some or maybe even most! Thanks Mo.

sacBarb said...

Bonachichi, You ate Tina? Was she tasty?

Tina~in_ut said...

SacBarb~ OF COURSE i'm tasty..duh~

Jodi~ I thought of you when I had to take him to the doc~

DeeDee~ SHUDDUP!!!~ Ur lucky he only has an ear infection!!!!!! SO LUCKY!!!! (hope ur feeling better soon, lovey!) :D

Dianne~ Grandson You Never Had~

East Bay J said...

Jodi, my brothers were both in Madison a couple weeks ago for the Badger/ASU game.

They are both ASU alum so flew in for a reunion with some friends and to go to the game.

They had a blast!

I have a cousin who is a Badger season ticket holder, they are die-hard fans!

Di, MR. EBJ is back to work as of last Monday.

His foot is completely healed according to the last x-ray, no surgery needed.

I was AMAZED, since he very seldom used his boot or crutches.

YES I saw that Bread is goign to be the next Bachelor.

WTF???

There are many other worthy guys who they could have picked, like Jake.

Just kidding! :)

Jodi said...

EBJ - The Badger games are a blast!! Especially if the stuck around for the "5th quarter"!!

BARB - You are soooooo not stranger than most ;)

TINA - I hope he gets better soon!!

Good night HOoters!! It's my weekend to work, so I'm heading to bed.

Jodi said...

EBJ......if THEY stuck around!!!

Jodi said...

20!!!

Lynn D said...

Evening Owls,

I am at the beach as close to a waterfall as I can get. :)

Waterfall huh whodathunk? I guess I should look up my name. lol I believe aries is a water sign so maybe it all goes together.

Mary are you bitter or do you like drinks with bitters?

Very fun Mo!

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Evening Owls! Congrats on 1st Bonachichi! Greetings to Mary, DeeDee, Jodi, EBJ, Tina, Dianne, SacBarb and Lynn D!

Dianne who or what are you hunting?

Who is Tracy?

Tina I think River suits you. I'd say your use of Depends confirms that don't you?

Carol's is right on, but Kathy's I'm not too sure.

I am definately not a bright meadow...more like a dark hole! Hey maybe DeeDee you and I could switch. How do you feel about being a Bright Meadow?

Cool blog Maureen! I'm really really glad your mom got her wish!

Mary/MI said...

Hi again all, just stopping by on my way to bed. We have a big family wedding tomorrow at Fred Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids. Tonight we had a family get-together for dinner.
I am still feeling jet lag and the effects of 6hr time change. I keep forgetting what day it is lol!

Diane, yes my Niece is now in the south of France in Nice, on the French Riviera. She will be teaching English to 8-10 yr old students.
We had a great time in Greece & Italy. I will be blogging about it as soon as I feel half ass normal lol!

LynnD, no & no lol.

Have a great week end everyone.
"Bitterless Mary" signing off :-)

Maureen said...

Good evening feathered friends!

Sorry it took so long to get here today. Was at Joanne's for her birthday!

SACBARB...when I read that, I almost considered leaving it off. You of all people are so NOT strange!

I too laughed out loud when I saw what KATHY meant!! Well, she was virginal when she was born, so maybe it is spot on!

I really think some of these names are really suited to the owl!

Glad you all enjoyed! Oh, did you all enjoy?

Maureen said...

DEE DEE...if I knew your real name, I'm sure it would have been a brighter meaning...maybe something like Golden Maize.

I'm going to shorten BEBBI'S name to B.B - Bebbi Beaver!

Maureen said...

SHIRLEY...thanks. Most days I am glad, too. Some days, not so much!

Maureen said...

We had a lock down today at work. It seems one of the Manager's laptops went missing from her office. We think a nurse took it thinking it was hers, but they can't take chances with a breach of security. We couldn't leave until 6:55 when the IS dude disabled it remotely and changed the passwords and security levels. I don't know why they couldn't just check our bags and let us go.

Maureen said...

I'm bored talking to myself, so...

Sweet dreams feathered friends!

Dianne/Denver said...

Night night MO

Zona said...

MO: LOL! LOL! LOL! You're so right..I WAS virginal..once.. ;)

I looked up my given name(as opposed to the shortened version)..and it means "pure"..there's just no denying what my mom had in mind..I think she wanted me to be a nun! :D Thanks for this list MO, it was great!

BONACHI: So..do you have a stomachache this morning? ;)

MARY, BARB, DEEDEE: Sometimes the meanings of the names are just wrong..

CAROL, J/LIN, EBJ, BIRDEE, JANICE, JENNIFER, LANI, JODI, GOLDIE, BEAR and MO: And sometimes the meanings are right on..

DIANNE, LYNN, SHIRLEY, TINA and BEBBI: These I'll have to think about..lol..but they bring up some great pictures..especially if you think of the whole group of you together! You're all sitting in a bright meadow near a waterfall and a river full of beavers..while DIANNE is hunting! Cool!! :)

TINA: I hope your son is feeling better today.

MO: How was Joanne's birthday party? I hope she had a very Happy Birthday! :)

MARY: Welcome home! So where did you stash George? ;)

LYNN: Enjoy your time at the beach..relax and renew! :)

JODI: Omg..Virginal Voice instead of Valium Voice..LOL!

EBJ: Everytime you write AMAZED it makes me laugh.. :D

Ok..this is turning out to be one long ass comment..oops..I don't think my virginal voice should say that... :D
