More or less the same thing but your name also means hay meadow. and as for the cow jokes - AS IF - you're too poorly. Besides being the worlds worst for remembering jokes you'd have to give me 2 weeks notice to come up with any. lol x

Roxanne

Roxanne Report 4 Sep 2006 14:24

The girl's name Roxanne is pronounced roks-ANN. It is of Persian origin, and its meaning is 'dawn.' Roxandra is a contemporary blend of Roxane and Alexandra, appropriate since Roxane was the Persian princess Alexander the Great married during his travels of conquest. Roxane is the heroine of Rostand's play 'Cyrano de Bergerac.'

Apparently Catherine with a C is the greek version of Katherine with a K which is english. Wendy is welsh meaning white or light skinned, a familiar form of Gwendolyn.
