How to Translate the Name of the Month

Just like any dictionary, I thought it wise to explain all parts of my name 'definitions'. And for such, I'll just have to use the example 'Michelle'. Each part of this origin 'definition' has been broken down so that you may understand what each bit tells you.

Mechelle; Mia; Micaela.

Facinating facts about this particular name! Often of feminine-masculine relationship (such as this one) and historical value.

All name information is taken from the book I live by (but don't know why), The Best Baby Name Book in the Whole Wide World by Bruce Lansky.
