Where did your name come from?

After discussing which World Cup team we could support other than the Allblacks, we got to talking about our heritage and where our names come from.  Mrs R's first name is Irish for 'dear friend'.  To find out about your name ask your family where it came from.  Why were you given your name? What about your middle name?  Why is it important? To help you I have added a link to the right hand side.  Just type in your name and search.  Can you present your name meaning in a creative way by Friday?
