Mine is made of two names: Annamaria. I was named after my grandmothers. 

Anna comes from Hebrew and it means "graceful, pretty". According to Christian tradition, Anna was Virgin Mary's mother. It's a very popular name in Southern Italy.

Maria also comes from Hebrew and it means "princess, lady". Personally I don't like my name, it's old-fashioned and..."heavy". I met only a few girls of my age with this name...

Linda:

 

Originally a medieval short form of Germanic names containing the element linde meaning "soft, tender". It also coincides with the Spanish word linda meaning "beautiful".
