Memoir Monday and Is this your name?

Is this cheating? I don't think so. I was going to wait an do an original Memoir Monday post a la Travis at I like to fish but then I was trying to catch up with all the unread posts in my google reader and I came across this one by Joshua the technical parent. It's all about your name and what it means. It totally intrigued me. Then I started thinking back to that one by julochka about coloring your name but I can't find it. Don't stress out, I sent her a note asking for assistance.

update: here's julochka's color thingie.

I digress. Anyway. I don't think this is cheating because I'm using my maiden name (hence the memoir bit).

Is this your name?

• My name has 36% vowels, by their standards, I am averagely envoweled.

• In ascii binary it looks like this:

01010011 01110101 01110011 01100001 01101110 00100000 01001101 01110101 01110010 01110010 01100001 01111001

I figure if you're geeky enough to either know what this means or spend time figuring it out then go for it. Nerd.

• People with my first name are usually female. Imagine that. Then it says that we are constantly overcharged for beauty products. Yep. I'd buy that. No pun intended of course.
• The origin of my name is Hebrew and it means Lily
• My personal power animal is the White Rhino... I'm not sure how I feel about this.

Moving on....

• "Your 'Numerology' number is 8. If it wasn't bulls**t, it would mean that you are motivated by material success and have an aptitude for business, managerial and financial matters. This comes through your uncommon discipline and persistence."
• I like material things... not sure about the aptitude for business or the other stuff. And hubs takes care of the finances (well, I take care of the out-going ones).
• And there are 8 people in my family (now) so that kinda fits.
• According to the US Census Bureau°, 0.794% of US residents have my first name and 0.0737% have my maiden surname. The US has around 300 million residents, so we guesstimate there are 1,756 Americans who go by the same name.

I have to tell you that I put in my married name and got quite different stats.

• 42% of the letters are vowels meaning that I'm well envoweled (I kinda figured that one)
• My animal is the American Harpy Eagle, maybe that has something to do with my always nagging and harping on my hubs... but I don't think so. I think I'm a pretty good wife.
• "Your 'Numerology' number is 5. If it wasn't bulls**t, it would mean that you are adventurous, mercurial, and sensual. You seek growth through adventure and different life experiences. Although you are a critical thinker, you can sometimes over-ponder an issue." This sounds a little bit more like me, but I'm not sure how adventurous I am these days.
• Oh and only 5 Americans have my same name. Quite a difference between that and my maiden name.

Ah success, thanks to greenwiggle I have the name of the site that will color your name:
Again I put in my maiden name and here's what I got

And... nothing because I can't copy the dang thing. Oh well. Go there and put your own name in. It's kinda cool.

While I was waiting for the coloring name site to finish I thought I'd check up on white rhinos. Here's what I found out.

• according to wikipedia it is one of the few megafaunal species left. That means it's big and fat. nice.
• it's got a wide mouth used for grazing... again, thanks so much
• it's the most social of all the rhino species - this I can handle
• they are pretty rare in the wild population. Yeah, me too since I've gotten old and (ahem) mature, and apparently such a wide ass.
• according to urban dictionary white rhino is a very expensive strain of maryjane. Haha. Not me, I enjoy my work and wouldn't screw it up just to get high. That's why I drink.

Speaking of drinking, it's after 5pm and I haven't fixed dinner or drinks so I guess I'll go make good on that whole "good wife" thing and make a special dinner for my main man. No Otie, I mean Bob.

what does your name mean?

UPDATE
mean ol' Travis said I was kinda cheating (okay he said really cheating) so here's a pic of me from the early days. Yes that's me with big hair. Yes that's me wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt and pearls. Yes that's me in my pink room with unicorn pictures.

thanks Travis
