My oldest son told me when he was little (we were having a conversation about what names mean and had talked about his and his younger brother's names and origins..the only two kids at that point) that he thought Jenny means "likes lots of breakable stuff". I got a kick out of that.
Honestly I have no idea.

Jenny, that's funny!! I had to look up my name and here is what I found:
Karin (a form of Katherine)- Pure, and
Lynne- either a lake (in Welsh, llin) or a beautiful waterfall. I think they made up the waterfall part to make it sound better. lol

someone correct me if i'm wrong, but i think that my name Susan, means lilly in hebrew??? (or maybe that was my daughter's name:jill?) anyway, i was born in 1957 (no comments please!!:)) and it seems that year, everyone named their daughter susan. i'd be walking down the hall in school and someone would shout out hey sue and 15 girls would turn around. i decided that i would never do that to my kids.

My full name is Hosanna Joy Shalom..... yeah, my Mom was into the Hebrew names. Hosanna means "Save us, Lord, we beseech thee." Joy means, well, joy, and Shalom means "Peace". Most of my brothers and sisters have like four names each. They are all quite different, too.

I have no idea what my name means. When I was young, and when my mother was alive, I used to think my name was "stop it" or "no".

I found more meanings for Mary:
Mary is a popular female first name and surname. The pronunciation of Mary is 'MARE EE'. It is Latin in origin and it means ' star of the sea'. There are also some other possible meanings like 'sea of bitterness', 'rebellion' and 'wished-for child.'
