What's the story behind your name? Where did you parents find it? Is there a person they named it after? What's it mean? Anything.

For me (my name being Tamsin), my mum read it in a book when she was in her teens and pictured the name on a little golden-haired girl. My sister was born, with red hair, and then after came me! Oh, and my name means 'twin'. Which is quite possibly the most boring meaning ever.

But what about you?

My parents first heard the name Chelsea in the movie Legal Eagles when they went out on a date a year before they were even married. I suppose it stuck with them and when they found out they were pregnant in '87, they gathered it together along with Olivia and Audrey and said they would decide when I was born. My middle name (which happens to be my maternal grandmother's name) would be Ann.

When I was born, and my dad held me for the first time, he said, "that's a Chelsea", and the rest is history.

I like my name. :]

And the meaning of Chelsea is 'A resting place on the sea' (Old English)
