Re: Meaning of my name
...we can broaden this system to include nanohelens (beauty enough to launch one dinghy).Even though Troy in Greek is of feminine gender, I've seen no reference of it ever having been used as a first name. Apparently the Troy in question is derived from the Gaelic/Irish "troightheach" (see http://members.tripod.com/mikerin1/). This name is supposedly common in Tipperary (which is long way from Asia Minor).
