Welcome, friend! Relax & rest awhile, if you please. I am an ordinary gal, a follower of Christ, mama to Gabriel, Heidi, & Aidan; and wife to Evan. Here on this little blog, I share all manner of bookish things, including full content reviews, writerly snippets, encouragement for everyday life, and a whole collection of names & their meanings.

What's in a Name?

How was your Monday, my friends?
Mine was a lovely, rainy one.  And to end it, I've got just a couple, unique names for you today.

Enjoy.  :]

Zaina
F | Arabic
zah-EE-na (possibly), or ZAY-nah (English)

The feminine form of Zayn, which means "beauty, grace."


Annora
F | English (rare)
ǝ-NOR-ah, ANN-or-ah (possibly)

Medieval, English variant of Honora, which is ultimately derived from the Late Latin given name Honorius, meaning "honour."





What do you think?  I rather like these two, graceful, feminine names.  Do you have a character they might fit??

Hopefully, next Monday I'll have the usual number.  Still getting into the hang of things, y'all.  :]  
Any requests??
Have a lovely week!

To each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, and a book of rules,
And each must make, ere life is flown,
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.
