First name is “victory of the people”.

Last name is long and Greek and has no meaning, other than maybe “could you spell that for me one more time?”

Isn’t it actually GRACIOUS gift from god?

I suppose it would work, though wrong works of religious texts, but yeah- that’s the gist of it.

I guess that could be my new Dopername if I ever needed it.

Not sure. There wasn’t a note with it (or a receipt).

My name translates to

Pure(first) Art(last).

I kinda like it. The last name has only been mine for 11 years.

I’d be “Doorkeeper by the dark water, by God’s grace” if you squinted just so.

But a colleague of mine chose the name “Benjamin” for his IVF-conceived child, and then discovered that the name means “Son of the right hand”. Go figure. 😃

Heh!

I should have mentioned that I threw in my middle name, too. (But the last name is quite long.)

P’shaw. I was born the \*\*Exalted \*\*(middle name) \*\*Queen \*\*(first name) of **Usurpers** , so you kneel before ME, Spear Boy.

Except that now I’m the Exalted Queen of [small town in England], so nevermind.

(Actually, if one envisions the Prosperity as a $100 bill, you’re your own game of rock, paper, cutty thing!)

Depending on your interpretation, either “God beholds the Son of Prosperity” or “Wealth of the Son of Prosperity”.

Gift from God, Greatest, (Color of My Hair) [We’ll keep it at that]

So the greatest gift from god is the color of my hair? Seems to be a bit of a stretch, that one.

Over here my name ends up transliterated as something like:

Warrior-Good-Cloud World-Man
