上帝的禮物

之前想過要給操可愛取個英文名字

不過因為懶惰始終沒有付諸實現

今年生日當天剛好興致來了

就好好思考一下要怎麼取才會有點意義



先在心裡打點底

然後上網搜尋了些資料

於是有以下的結論



Dorothea

Feminine form of the Late Latin name Dorotheus, from the Greek Δωροθεος (Dorotheos), which meant "gift of God" from Greek δωρον (doron) "gift" and θεος (theos) "god". Dorothea was the name of two early saints, notably the 4th-century martyr Dorothea of Caesarea. It was also borne by the 13th-century Saint Dorothea of Montau, who was the patron saint of Prussia.



簡單來說,Dorothea就是上帝所給的禮物

不過Dorothea念起來有些繞口,就簡單點叫Doria吧!

恰好Doria含有來自Doris(希臘神話中海洋之神的女兒)的意義

而操可愛她娘老家正好是臨海的台西

因此嘉耘小妹妹的英文名字就這樣取好啦!




The gift of God -- Doria --


這個禮物還不賴唷~~~
