My Name

Deidra                 -origin Gaelic, meaning "woman" or alternatively "raging" or "melancholy" due to an Irish                                    tale of a princess who had her heart broken
Sage                    -origin English borrowing from Latin, meaning "wise" or "prophet"
Peterson              -origin Danish borrowed from Greek, meaning "son of Peter (which means 'rock')"
Chamberlain        -origin English borrowing from Latin through either French, German, or Italian, meaning                                  "one occupied with the care of the master's bedchamber"


I've always liked my name. At first I didn't like the story of the first Deidra, but her name was spelled differently anyway. Also, it is a deliciously tragic tale. Here's a link: Dreams of Deirdre
