Our Names

Monday, June 18, 2007
I was invited by Tina (KK) to have my children's names and its meaning posted.

Here they are:

1.Anna Lorraine, 23,:
I like the name and it reminds me of 1977 Miss Philippines-Universe Anna Lorraine Kier.
I searched goggles and I found the name Lorraine(read as Luh Rayn) From the name of a region in France which means "kingdom of Lothair". Lothair was a Frankish king, the great-grandson of Charlemagne, whose realm was in the part of France that is now called Lorraine, or in German Lothringen (from Latin Lothari regnum),Lorraine is the first Popular name in Scotland in 19th Century.
Here, click Lorraine France

2. Anna Margarita,19:


The name came from the Miss Philippines Universe 1973:Margie Moran and also Queen Marguerite, of France.

The name was derived also from Latin Margarita, which was from Greek μαργαριτης (margarites) meaning "pearl", probably a borrowing from Sanskrit.The famous name bearer was Queen Margaret I of Denmark, who united Denmark, Sweden, and Norway in the 14th century. The name was also borne by Margaret Mitchell, author of 'Gone with the Wind'.


3.Anjo Louie, 18:

I cant remember how it came that I have the name ANJO LOUIE for my son. What I remembered, I wanted his name to link with his sisters' with A or ANNA, but cant be ANNA as he was a baby boy, haha. So I thought ANJO LOUIE suits him .Then it came that in France, there's a place
Anjou.

The meaning of the name Louie is Famous Warrior
The origin of the name Louie is English and the famous name holder is King Louis of France

My true name is Amalia,
derived from Amalia Fuentes, fav actress ng Nanay ko.Then in France, there's a name Amelie variant of AMALIA (or sometimes of EMILIA). A famous bearer was Amelia Earhart, the first woman to make a solo flight over the Atlantic Ocean.

Some french friends said, I look like Amalia Rodriguez, famous Portuguese singer. Sige na nga!

Basta, with our names linked with French names,
I think, that made us all here in France.LOL

Ganun ata yun?
anyway, what ever name your parents gave you, the personality behind the name always counts.Say mo?

Hi Ate Amy,

Salamat at pina-unlakan mo ako sa paglathala ng mga ibig sabihin at pinang-galingan ng inyo mga pangalan.
Thank you for your time.

Wow! What a coincidence that your children's names has a link to France.

Lovely family.
bagay na bagay sa beauty queens ang pamilya na ito.
swerte si wis-hart.

Gracita, lorraine is still in phils, to apply for regroupement familial in France, only minor aged children are allowed. Lorraine was 22 that time, while margie and anjo were ages 17 and 16.
Hopefully,if I will be approved for french citizenship year 2008 august I will try.
Or else, Lolo plan to invite her to visit us.
