Hi my name is Miriam,
Where I come from its used as a prophecy and as a legend by my family's past generation. Each name I see has a story behind its past. Even if it's Karen, Kacey, Hailey, Marie, or even Tyler. Each name has its own story and personality to tell. I was an outcast just because I was too ugly to have a beautiful name like that. I always got bullied until middle school came and my name made me a star pupil at that school!
Appreciate your name!

I love Miriam. It is a gorgeous name with sweet nicknames (Miri, Mira, Mimi) and a great history. Jewish legends tell us that when Pharaoh decreed all baby boys would be killed Miriam's parents seperated so they would not have a son and have to lose him. Miriam, then a small child, convinced her parents not too. Because they stayed together Moses was born. There is also a story that Miriam somehow provided a well for the Israelites to drink from while they were in the desert. This comes partly because right after the bible tells us Miriam died it tells us that the Israelites had no water to drink from, partially due to Miriam sounding the same as the same as the Hebrew word for water (Ma'yim). She is also said to have been the leader of the women in the camp.
