I didn't realize that Brendan was your middle name! Very cool!

Lynn. It's my dad's middle name.

Actually, it's really Elizabeth, which babynames.com translates to the same meaning, but I've more often seen it as "consecrated to God", from the Hebrew. Incidentally, the male equivalent (Elisheva/Elisheba) means "God is my wrath". Cool, eh?

And the middle name is Anne, though you won't get the full kid effect unless you also know my maiden name. :)

So what's your maiden name? Inquiring minds want to know! :)

Bwah-ha-ha...mine never is!

I have found people who seem to know what it means. Because it's a derivative of Sharon, I think Shara means "valley of beauty" or some kind of crap. BUT my last name? I know what that means: "without care."

The meaning for my last name is oddly appropriate. Or maybe I wish it was.

Middle name: Lynn. You should be able to find that. :)

Chun is a horrible translation of my original Korean name, which sounds like joon. Joon means, and I am asking my mom right now, deep... wow... deep.

My middle name has always been mispronounced by most people who have only known English for some reason (actually, my first name often get's mispronounced as well.) It's Hyon. It's yon with the H sound at the start of it but not Hee-yon as I often hear it when people try to pronounce it.

There, now you have my middle name rant.

BTW it means giant flying zombie monkey pirate!

Okay it means golden arch.

So, deep golden arch? Looks like something was lost in translation or maybe my mom really loved McDonald's back then.
