Answer

I love my name! My grandparents chose my name. I was supposed to be a Samantha (dad's choice) but the minute my grandfather (mom's dad) seen me he said I was a "beautiful wee Shannon!" My grandparents came to Canada when my mom was 5 from Belfast, Ireland and the house they lived in was on Shannon St as well as my grandparents love for the Shannon River.

Answer

I'm not actually sure what convinced my parents to name me what they did to be honest. Both my sisters have much more common names than me, I in fact have ever only met one person once with my name (same spelling at all). My name is of Irish origin which is weird because while my great grandfather was Irish, he was also terribly abusive and they wouldn't have given me an Irish name in honour of him.
My name also have various relations to other names of French, German and even Hawaiian names.
It can mean anything from peaceful and attractive, to handsome and rock to light and torch, to even just feminine versions of other names depending on where you look.

Answer

I love name meanings, but my parents didn’t name me for that, they just liked the name. It’s also a biblical name (my family is Catholic/Baptist) but they opted for a modern spelling which is good as the biblical character actually wasn’t that great of a person. My name means captivating and strong combatant. It also means “to tie or bind” which I’ve never really understood lol.

Answer

My mom named me after a girl she knew in grade school who was supposedly super intelligent and different and obviously had some kind of impact on my mom's life.
