find the meaning of my name

find my name

My name is Taeh, too. I've heard several names pronounced like mine (Tay-uh), but never spelled like mine. Wow! I was named after my mother's aunt whose parents were Danish. They named her Dorteah; probably a misspelling of Dorthea, but in the Danish they pronounced it Dor-tay-uh. Her nickname was Teah. My mother turned the a and the e around--she said she thought other people would find it easier to spell. Hah!

I think it's safe to say that Taeh is a variant of Téa. Recently a lot of people have started using the spellings Taya or Tayah. The meanings I found for Tea are "white" and "goddess".

You could also say that Tayah/Taya/Taeh are forms of Taylor. Click on Taylor for its meaning.

Or you could say that Taeh is a form of Taya, which means "valley field" in Japanese.

Kenah taeh? means And you? in the Menominee Native American language. That's all I can find, sorry.
