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?

Oh, and they also considered Jillian, Penelope, Jordan, and a few others I can't remember. My mom also like the name Evan for a boy, but my dad thought it was too feminine. (ok...)

And Meredith means "protector of the sea" The "mer" part means sea, I assume. It comes from Welsh. I take it they didn't really care about the meaning. My brother always said that my name means "Sea witch."
