Diane Downs (born August, 1955), a divorced Oregon postal worker, was convicted in 1984 of shooting her three children (Christie, 8; Cheryl, 7; and Danny, 3) on the evening of May 19, 1983, killing Cheryl and seriously injuring Christie and Danny. Downs, notorious for her affairs with married men, was obsessed by a married former coworker who did not want children in his life and Downs, unwilling to accept his rejection, reasoned that eliminating her children would allow her to continue the affair. Christie Downs, at nine years of age, confirmed in June 1984 at her mother's trial that her mother was the one who shot her and Cheryl and Danny. Downs, heavily pregnant with a fourth child as a means to elicit sympathy, was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison. Diagnosed with three personality disorders (Narcissistic, Histrionic, and Antisocial), equating to a sociopath, she maintains her innocence although she still can't keep her story straight.

"Diane de Versailles" is a slightly over lifesize marble statue of the Greek goddess Artemis, with a deer, located in the Musée du Louvre, Paris. The statue is also known as Diane Chasseresse ("Diana Huntress"), Diana à la Biche, Artemis of the Chase, and Artemis with the Hind. She is elegant and breathtaking. From the moment I saw her she became my personal favorite statue.
A famous bearer is actress Diane Kruger who played leading lady in such films as Troy, National Treasure and Inglourious Bastards. Who by the way is NOT frumpy, old, wallflower-ish or any of the like. She's a young breathtakingly beautiful girl. So all you Diane / Dianas be proud. It's a classic and beautiful name with interesting origins. : )
