CAROLINE :<\/b><\/font>
\nPronounced:<\/i> CARE-o-line
\nOrigin(s):<\/i> French, English, Scottish
\nMeaning:<\/i> “Manly”, French feminine form of CHARLES, from the Germanic name Karl<\/i>, which was derived from a Germanic word which meant “man”. Monaco’s Princess Caroline Grimaldi<\/b><\/a> is the beautiful daughter of Prince Rainier and American motion-picture actress Grace Kelly<\/a>.
\nSpecial Significance:<\/i> Caroline B.<\/b> was one of my girlfriends when I was in university; she had the most exquisite cheekbones I have ever had the privilege to know!<\/p>\n

ORSON :<\/b><\/font>
\nPronounced:<\/i> OR-sun
\nOrigin(s):<\/i> French, Latin
\nMeaning:<\/i> Little bear, from the Norman French ors<\/i>, and ultimately from Latin ursus<\/i>. In 1938, Orson Welles<\/b><\/a> panicked the listening public with a radio adaptation of H. G. Wells’s The War of the Worlds<\/i>, done in the style of a news broadcast.
\nSpecial Significance:<\/i> One of my budgies is named Orson<\/b> (that’s Orson Budgie<\/b>, not “horse and buggy”!), after Orson Welles<\/b>, one of my favourite directors.<\/p>\n

Information sources include Behind the Name<\/a> and Baby Zone<\/a>. I don’t know why I decided to do this little project, but I posted two names each day for the month of October. The first 26 days were for names from “A” to “Z”; the last five are a bonus of names that are special to me.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
