Can do this one of two ways. Tried to be gentle in my rejection of your subliminated attempt to impose morality standards. Just go with 'Useful'.
😞
consider 'Portia' (not Judy or Marcy) and please introduce her to 'Merchant of Venice' at a tender age,

Originally posted by JaminPrecisely... and what a lovely and sensuous name to think about and say and revel in its sound. 'Adam' in the Hebrew connotes nobleman.
That would work for Trisha, Aisha, Moesha as a shortened form.
The shortened form sounds better than any of those names!
But in the sense used here, it as a interesting background on it's own. 'Isha' would be a rough transliteration of the Hebrew word for woman...

Originally posted by Fleabittenfair enough, the amount of americans who say they're irish and clearly aren't is scary. last time i was in the states i had an argument with a guy who claimed to be irish because his great granddads brothers mum was from ireland. i have more swedish blood in me than that i wouldn't dare call myself to be anything close to being swedish.
I was born in the States, but my folks weren't. Mother's from Dublin. Father's from Moscow. And thanks for asking. I appreciate the interest.
when it comes down to it, you could call yourself american though? being born their and having an american passport?

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyGood suggestion. Also, Uzless, if you're committed to the Justice concept, you might consider Themis or Astrea (names for the Greek goddess of justice).

Originally posted by trev33Absolutely. In fact, when I've travelled to England, I've referred to myself as American. The Rusian/Irish denotation comes from my upbringing in Philadelphia where neighborhoods are segmented by heritage. Growing up, we didn't refer to ourselves or one another as American. We knew we were all Americans. But, for whatever sociological reasons, what sort of American you were was important.
