Condoleeza

Hard to find the meaning of Condoleeza. Maybe something related to Condolences, or from Portuguese "Condolência" corrupted to English as Condoleeza. But who would name a child after "condolences"...

If you are talking about Condoleezza Rice...her name was derived from the Italian phrase "con dolcezza" - with sweetness.

In her case "condolences" is may be a bit more appropriate...... though in all fairness we must admit that she is quite a few links higher up the food chain than Madeleine Albright (but I digress)
