Geraldine, one who rules by spear (french) watch out everybody!

My grandmother wanted us to have french names because of our ancestry, I could never understand that because out of 9 children not one of hers had a french name!

Just looked it up -

Mary

Hebrew - bitter; rebellion; star of the sea
Italian - beautiful
French - bitter
Latin - ransom; virgin; merciful
Irish - bitter; great

With 3 bitters mentioned above, my definition would be :

'Sour old cow'
