Where did your name come from?
A name is an important thing that we have to live with day in and day our. It’s something we’re kind of stuck with and not many of us legally change. Though my parents divorced when I was just a few months old and I never knew my dad I was named Aprul after his birth month of April. Note the changed spelling my mom gave it. Can’t say I’m too fond of it and I go by my middle name Deanne.

Interesting name and very pretty picture. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, thought today would be a great day for a photo update. 🤣😊
I always thought I was named after my dad who was called Sandy (Sandra is my legal name), BUT I found out a few years after he died that I had been named after a little girl on Dad’s school bus run who was always very sweet and polite. It didn’t rub off on me! 😂😂😉
Is that right? So your dad was a school bus driver? I always admire them. Most bus drivers I know are so nice to the children and they put up with a lot of nonsense. Our children have had the same bus driver for 6 years. You’re just saying that I’m sure you are but at least he tried. 🤣😊😁
He was a lovely man, Deanne. I still, after 36 years, miss him every day.💖
Oh so beautifully said , Sandy. 💖
Deanne a sweet name of a gorgeous lady.
Thank you kindly.
That’s lovely little story 👍🏻😊
You’re too kind, thank you! 😊
👍🏻🙌🏻
Love Deanne! I was originally going to be called Noel, after an uncle or someone. My dad thought it was too masculine and changed it to Noelle, which I am very happy with. Not sure why the Christmas reference unless it had to do with the fact I was conceived then?
Noelle is such a beautiful name and I love the spelling.
Thanks! Off to Scotland today!
What a marvelous treat. Enjoy every moment of your relaxation time. 💖

Where did Terry originate from
The name Terry has multiple origins:
Norman French
Terry can come from the Norman French name Thierry, which means “ruler of the people”. Thierry is a short form of the Gothic name Theodoric, which is made up of the Germanic words theud (“people race”) and rīc (“power(ful) rich”).
Greek
Terry can also be a diminutive of the Greek name Theresa, which means “harvest” or “summer”.
Latin
Terry can also be a diminutive of the Latin name Terence, whose meaning is unknown.
How did they decide on your middle name? Was it inherited from a relative?
My middle name is a version of my mom’s name which is Diane.
Very distinctive name and cool picture, you are a very distinctive soul
Yes they are. Thank you kindly.
Our names are the sweetest sound we hear. It itself is a brand that we develop by our actions and words. We actually do not have to give anew name to our professions and live a double-standard life. Not required.
I agree with that. Thank you for stopping in today.
