[Opinions] Re: Taurus
in reply to a message by Girl
Here are a few names for Taurus girls according to Nancy Burke's Hey, Baby, What's Your Sign? (Philip Lief Group, Inc., 1999). The legitimacy of the names and their meanings is suspect, but it could be worth looking for if you want a book that tries to make astrological connections for names...or you need a laugh.
Adamina: A "red earth" meaning for the first Earth sign.
Alexandra: "protector of humankind" Taureans love security and protect their loved ones.
Belinda: "beautiful" (meaning is actually unclear) Taurus is ruled by Venus which also governs beauty.
Bryn: "mountain-like" (really, hill or mound) "Suggests the formidable strength possessed by all Taureans" (pg 63).
Diantha: "divine flower" Flower names are big for all the springtime signs.
Jolie: The beauty thing again.
Leigh: "From the pasture" (field) "Taureans, born under one of the zodiac's three Earth signs, feel a special connection to vast fields" (pg 70).
Lucretia: "rewarded with wealth" (profit, wealth) Taureans willingness to work hard can lead to financial reward.
Noriko: "law and order" (law/rule child) Taureans just naturally love rules and following the law, apparently.
Phyllis: "green branch" (foliage) Again, spring.
Valerie: "strong" "Taureans are renowned for their remarkable emotional and physical resilience and fortitude" (pg 77).
Basically, if you look up names by meaning and focus on nature, beauty, luxury/wealth, hard work/determination, strength, cows & oxen, spring, April, and May, you can pull together a list that has a lot of Taurean qualities.
