I was thinking about a name I have long loved but am not sure I'm brave enough to use. In college, I had a professor who'd spent many years in India as a missionary. She was a freakin awesome lady! Having learned much about the Indian culture, she fell in love with a name and gave it to her oldest daughter. The name is Mitanjeli (prn. mih-TAN-juh-lee). In Hindi, it means "Sweet handful of blessing from the Lord." At the time I had this professor, her daughter was only about 8 or so years old and her mom figured that when she was older, she would probably go by Anji for short. The daughter is now a teenager, and I've just found out she goes by Mitzi. I'm not a big fan of Mitzi, but I LOVE Mitanjeli. I think it rolls off the tongue absolutely beautifully. I think it's gorgeous, and couldn't rave about it enough... but what do you guys think of the name Mitanjeli? The nicknames Mitzi and Anji?
