that name meme, then bed

Gacked from...everyone?

1. What does your first name mean?
"Bright, pure." Ehm. Suuuuure I am.
2. What does your middle name mean?
Heh. According to the name site, no one really knows what my middle name means. So I can choose between "each of the two" (wtf?), "torture" (heh), or...um..."pure" again. I'm tired of all the purity, so... torture!
3. What does your last name mean?
"Brown warrior." I'm suddenly feeling my distant Scottish roots.
4. So what does your name mean when put together?
I am a bright, pure Brown Warrior with a knack for torture. DUDE. I like this!
5. What would you have been named if you were the opposite gender?
Ross. Meh. Whee, Scottishness. (It's funny 'cause I'm so...not Scottish. Except for whatever distant relative gave me my last name. Yet, had I been born male, my name would make me a living, breathing Macbeth character.)
6. Any other name oddities?
I am constantly amused by the fact that my parents' top name choices (my real name and my theoretical boy!name) would both turn out to be characters on Friends. Weirdness.

And now to bed.

good to know...

Keep in mind that I am not a particularly religious person. I was raised by a not-very-religious Episcopalian (think almost Anglican Christianity) father and an atheist Jewish mother. Went to church twice a year (Xmas Midnight Mass and Easter) and synagogue whenever my grandparents decided to take me, but meh.

According to the SelectSmart.com Belief System Selector, my #1 belief match is Reform Judaism. What do you believe? Visit SelectSmart.com/RELIGION

And yet, this is EXACTLY the religion I identify myself with. 100% match and all. ::indicates small silver Star of David necklace that lives around her neck:: I didn't try to get this result, just answered each question with what I honestly thought or believed. Huh. Weird. Guess I DO know myself.
