My names are hebrew. Yeah, I have 2 names. The first is a temple where my 2nd name worships God. They say if your name comes from the bible, you will grow up to be a good person. Ahm, I guess they're right hehehe. But actually, that's not where my mama got my name. She got it from a play where the husband and wife play their characters very well. She must have been engrossed or liked their tandem that she combined their names and gave it to me, her first born ('v')!

My real name is Angelina and that is Italian word of Little Angel. My name got it from my Grandmother which is the Aunt of my Mother. My nickname is ANGEL that I like people to call me. Of course sounds casual rather than calling me Angelina which sounds like really formal.

My name is Persian for "star or "heavenly body". I was named after the queen in the Bible. My mother loved the name from the time she was little and said that if she ever had a daughter she would name her Esther.

My name is hebrew for lilly. I don't think my father knew that. He probably just liked the sound of it. And he didn't want a name from any older family member. He is very non-traditional that way.
