Merlin -
A kind of Falcon; Meaning sea hill
Well, of course I knew that a merlin is a falcon.
But MY Merlin is a wizard - that's all. That's what I meant by his name. He is of course named after the wizard in T.H. White's "The Book of Merlin" and more generally, Arthurian legend.
I wouldn't worry about Leia's name not being there Eileen!!!

:-D Actually not yet, Kazz, the sun isn't over the yardarm, but the vino is chilling in the fridge and will be appearing shortly!.
I think Leia is a proper Victorian girl who believes the old adage that a true well bred lady's name appears in the papers three times: when she is born, when she is wed and when she dies! None of this modern "15 minutes of fame" for my girl...Britney or Paris she's not! ;)
Angel means messenger of god
Tilly means mighty in battle
Tate means a wisp of hay or hair
Leila means night beauty.
Phoebe means bright
Kisses means more than one kiss
Ruby means red jewel
Shannon means old one
Roxy means dawn
Kirah means lord
These are the meanings on that site. There are no meanings for Jilly and the meaning for Cory has been lost. In my baby books they mean:-
Jilly means fair skinned
Cory means helmet, hollow-dweller or pool-dweller.
Kirah in my books means sun, throne or shepherd so slightly different.
Cassie is from a Greek expression whose meaning has been lost! :smt102

Oh I didn't think of that Eileen, you may be right!:D
Cassie is a form of Cassandra and is Greek for 'an ensnarer of men'. That is in my baby book Mags.

You will definitely have to keep an eye on her now ;) ;)
I have two cats, one of their names is listed on the site!
Mouse - small rodent with a long tail
Hmmmmm......maybe not quite what I was going for LOL I just named her that because she's so tiny and she squeaks!
Miw-Bast (not listed) - is ancient egyptian for "Cat of Bast" or "Child of Bast" (Bast being the ancient egyptian cat goddess!). We just call her Miw though......which means "Cat" very fitting! LOL
