Say My Name

Have you ever thought about themeaning behind your name? Many people don't realized how important a name to someone is. After all, it is what everyone calls you and what everyone will call you the rest of your life.

My name, Andrea, means "manly." Not as in manlike, but as in strong and courageous. In my opinion, my parents chose the completely wrong name. However, research shows that more people with the name of Andrea end up pursuing a career in the medical field. I have always wanted to be a surgeon. My first name was chosen by my dad because he wanted to be named after himself, Andy. They chose Andrea between Andrea and Andi.

My middle name, on the other hand, came from my grandmas on both sides of my family. One grandma's middle name is Jean, and the other's is Marie. Hence, Jean-Marie.

My last name, Davidson, along with very many others, was my fathers last name and my mother's also.
