Archivesname meaning of Cheri
Hey there, I love your page. I found out that the name Cheri is the root name of Cheryl and it's pronounced originally (shr-ee) it's french, and the meaning of it is beauty; beloved.
Also, I'd like to add that when I looked up biblical names, that YHWH was up there...yahweh, is what it was originally was with the vowels, which is hebrew, but the name that he goes by now is Jehovah, which means ''he causes to become''. Well, anyway, I just had to add that in, thats all, please email me whenever you have the chance, alright. Thanks again.

How did you know that about Yahweh?

If I know it too, it's not arcane knowledge, believe me! The reason that I've picked up is that Hebrew is written without vowels, so the four consonants (the tetragrammaton?) of the name used by some at least of the Old Testament people for their god were YHWH; when the merry English transliterated this, they changed the Y to a J (which they'd have been used to from Latin anyway) and the W to a V (same), and used more vowels than they strictly should have. And, with generations of hymn-singing Welsh ancestors behind me, I'm glad they did. "Guide me, o thou great Yahweh" lacks something!
