Definition of a name

[Branwen]

Just for Gits & Shiggles, I decided to look up my name in Google. I wasn't there, BUT I really get a kick out of the definition of my last name (Burke). Have a look:

hmmmmmm...............

decided to check on mine, although I was pretty sure what it meant (duh!)

rob·in ( rŏb ' ĭn ) n. A North American songbird (Turdus migratorius) having a
rust-red breast and gray and black upper plumage.

*** let's see; my chest gets sunburned while in garb (hazzards of bodice and rather endowed :D ) and my hair, before going to the salon, is dark brown instead of black with gray "highlights". I guess that pretty much does describe me -- Y I K E S***

as for my last name, the only thing I could come up with was -- "the son of God". I think you can figure it out.
