HelpRe: Martha
in reply to a message by kayfiona
Martha is nice but it seems rather old-ladyish, or maybe it's just that the only Martha I know is my elderly next-door-neighbor. I would use it more as a middle name or, the heroine in a book I read once was named Martha but everyone called her Marty! I also love the name Miriam which is also Bibical, WDYTO it?

That's true...
Miriam is sometimes said to mean "sea of bitterness" but it's also said to mean "rebelliousness", and "wished for child" or "strong, firm".
It could also be an Egyptian name (since Moses his sister Miriam and their people were born in Egypt) perhaps derived in part from mry "beloved" or mr "love".
So if you did really like it you could choose which ever meaning you prefered! :)
