whta's with my name?

names...names...names!
whatever be our names, they have their own "history" of coming into being -
some were combinations of the parents' names, others were from famous personalities, others were just mere products of the extreme imagination of people! funny how it
seems...
my name's HANNAH :) ...it may sound too common, but it does have a background of its own. it was my parents who gave me this name. the idea came from the Hannah in the Bible. the name was mentioned in the Book of Samuel. Hannah, according to the Hebrew Bible, was the mother of Samuel. The Hebrew word "Hannah" has many meanings and interpretations such as beauty or passion. that was the biblical meaning of Hannah.
of course, i like my name. i'm known by this one! H-A-N-N-A-H!
i also thought that Hannah could be spelled simply as "hana" - which actually has a lot
interpretations also. Hana is the Korean word for "One" and the Japanese word for "Flower".
well, that would be all... ^^
