Happy Monday!
Are you enjoying Spring-ish weather where you art?? Or are you still shoveling through the lovely-white snow of Winter? Dunno 'bout you, but my day here was so sunny & GORGEOUS. So looking forward to Spring!
It's another Nickname edition, y'all!!! I love these! But as I was rather late in preparing this post, there's only a featured four present today. But I do think you'll like them. :]
Enjoy!

Makoa
M | Hawaiian
From the Hawaiian word meaning "fearless, courageous, aggressive."
Penelope
F | Greek Mythology, English
Possibly derived from the Greek penelops, a type of duck---which, in turn, could come from the elements pene "threads, waft" and ops "face, eye." In Homer's Odyssey, this was the given name of the wife of Odysseus.
Theodore
M | English
From the Greek name Theodoros, meaning "gift of God."
Violaine
F | French
A variant of Violante, ultimately a derivative of the Latin viola meaning "violet."

Theo is my favorite!! Though as always, they are all cool :) Mak looks like a dystopian nickname, doesn't it?
