PROMPT: Name
Apparently, my [first] name is of French / West German origin and means “bear” “hard.” I’m sure it was chosen because it’s a saint’s name — actually several saints, most of whom were French and none – that I’m aware of – was Irish. This is interesting because my ancestral origins are primarily Irish on both sides, though my family name is apparently of Scottish origin. (I was aware some Scottish ancestry was in there, but didn’t know the name came from Scotland.)
