A long time ago, someone told me my name meant 'Queen', and I replied, "Yea, Queen of the Misfits" It appears that it holds true...as I've been a manager of group homes, and supervised apartment programs and now with the homeless. I mean that in a very non-offensive way, as I've loved the job and people and what life gave me from it.
What does your name mean and does it in anyway apply to you or your life? |

Gender: Feminine
Usage: English From the name of the region in the northwest of France, called in French Bretagne. It was named for the Briton settlers who fled to that area after the Anglo-Saxon invasion of England. As a given name, it first came into common use in America in the 1970s. See I belong in England! |
