Did I Hear Your Name Before?
What does your name mean?
Since I’m writing here on Medium, I see a lot of different names. Writers from different countries, different cultures
I am sure there will be a meaning of your name. I love to see a lot of different names. I am also very curious about what your name means.
Maybe you know why your parents have chosen this name for you?
What does your name mean?
Do you have family members with the same name? Are you named after that person?
Are you named after someone? Was it someone special?
Are there other people with the same name? If yes, do you know them? Is your name common?
Does your name appears in a certain area of your country, region, or is your name world-wide spread?
Just let me know in the comments, or write a new story and tag me so I know your story.
So, I start. Are you doing this along with me?
Maybe you know why your parents have chosen this name for you?
My name is Agnes. My parents choose this name because they like my name.
What does your name mean?
Agnes comes from Greek and it means ‘pure and ‘holy’.
Different ways of writing as my name are world-wide spread. In Italian my name is Agnese, in Portuguese it is Inês, and in Spanish it is Inés.
It was the Agnes of Rome that let use the name widely. For more than 400 years.
Do you have family members with the same name? Are you named after that person?
I don't have a family member with the same name. So, I’m not named after someone from the family.
Are you named after someone? Was it someone special?
Well, I don’t know if I’m named after someone my parents know and if I was, I don’t know who it was. I also don’t know, if I was named after that person if that person was special to my parents.
Are there other people with the same name? If yes, do you know them? Is your name common?
I believe there are people with my name. In fact, there is a writer here on Medium who has the same name. I know there is another local news journalist in my town with the same name. I love to know others with the same name too.
Does your name appears in a certain area of your country, region, or is your name world-wide spread?
Ooh, well, I don’t know. I believe it is a well-known name in the world. So, I believe there is no special region or country where my name comes from.
