I'm finally breaking down and admitting that the "forest voices" meaning of my name is probably wrong because it's not "adding up" with the Armenian words for "forest voices" antar and dzayn. It's a female Armenian name. So..does anyone know what it could really mean?

Spanish
According to legend, Spanish names actually began as cries between Christian families, warning each other of the approaching Moors. Most surnames in the Spanish world today are patronymic and locational in origin. Before surnames became hereditary, a father's name was generally used as a surname. These were distinguished by the endings -es and -ez which mean "son of" Some of these names gradually evolved into hereditary family names. Lords tended to use the name of their estates as surnames and sometimes the estate name was combined with a patronymic. A recent custom has been to use the father's surname in conjunction with the mother's. in these names, the father's surname comes first and is joined to the mother's by "y" (and) or occasionally by a hyphen. Other Spanish surnames include: Palo (a dweller near a tree), Tirado (the sharpshooter, or marksman), Labrador (one who cultivated the land; farmer) and Seda (one who dealt in silk).
I have seen mention of a possible Silk conection on other sites

Other than as a word it means Silk in Spanish, I'm not really sure.
I had forgotten to mention to you that I had bought a new baby name book and it actually has Seda in it and says that it is Armenian for "Forest Echo" : )

Hmm...interesting!(m)
What book is it?
It's rare that you find Seda in even a names book.

The Everything Baby Names Book by Lisa Shaw. It's not the best and certainly not the most accurate, but I thought it was cute and it was only $3, so I bought it, haha.
You can see the book here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1558506551/qid=1135114917/sr=1-4/ref=sr_1_4/002-6476321-8950445?s=books&v=glance&n=283155
