Behind Your name

Ladyzekke · 01-08-2005, 08:02 PM

Hey I'm bored shut up. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I actually was looking for a site that had a one or two word description of what your name was. I remember when I was 10 I read something that said Wendy meant "The Wanderer." But I can't find any site re that. I did though find this one, which is kinda interesting. If you are bored too, check it out. [img]smile.gif[/img]
