Re: What does my name mean??
Hola Anahi,This names is of Guaraní origin and it means "Flower of the sky". The Guaraní culture inhabited the South Brazil, Paraguay and North East Argentina in the Pre-Columbine period.According to the following link, she was a Brazilian/Gauaraní princess
http://www.laguna.com.br/cruzalta/ca10.htm#ANAHÕDon't know if you speak portuguese, so basically what it says is that Anahi was a Guaraní princess who wasn't beautiful but instead she had a great voice and sang beautifully, imitating a Curruíra (bird).
One day Spaniard's armies came to her village and so she fought them along with the Guaraní people. She was caught prisoner and burned . The next day when the Spaniards went back to the place where they had executed their prisoners, the found a tree, covered in Vermelha flowers and tears of blood. According to this legend, the spirit of Anahí lives in avery Vermelha flower.Hope this helps,
Magia
