I Won’t Tell No One Your Name
I realized (just today, if you can believe) that Steve and I decided on Andrew James without ever knowing the meanings of those names. I suggested James to honor my Uncle Jimmy that passed away a few years ago, and since we didnt like it enough to be his first name, we began pondering names to go along with it. And eventually landed on Andrew. Just because it offers a variety of nicknames, and even the added bonus of AJ.
So, today, I looked up the names. And according to babynamesworld.com, Andrew means: Man, Warrior and James means: Supplanter. Yep. (I didnt actually know what supplanter meant, it doesnt seem to be a kind word… usurper: one who wrongfully or illegally seizes and holds the place of another. :O)
So, my child’s full name means: Man, Warrior, Supplanter, Long, Sky, Australia. So, if 30 years from now, you see a Korean kid taking over Australia, it could very well be my son. Uh-oh.
