So...I Guess I Just Get to Pick the One I Like Best?

Today is Wednesday, in the first full week of March. Which makes it part of Celebrate Your Name Week. And the Wednesday of Celebrate Your Name Week is designated as Learn What Your Name Means Day.

So.

I did a web search: What does the name Kimberly mean? Because that's my full first name. (Usually, though, people just call me Kim. Except for my grandmas, and my aunts and uncles, and my brother and his family, and my husband. They all call me Kimmy. Probably more than you wanted to know, but there it is.)

So, anyway. Kimberly. I looked up the meaning, and this is what I found:
  • From the wood of the royal forest
  • From the royal fortress meadow
  • Meadow of the royal fort
  • Ruler
  • Cyneburg's field
  • Leader of the warriors
That's quite a variety of meanings, isn't it? Since there are so many, I guess I'll just pick the one I like the best.

So, from now on - or at least for today - you may refer to me as:


Kimberly...Leader of the Warriors


It has a nice ring to it, don't you think?
