In 1902, a young girl called Mary O'Donnel inadvertently invented the name Myra. In 1902, ffng dilearni was a fairly unknown condition in schools across England. When Mary began school she would name her work Myra.
Despite many lashings with the cane, Mary just could not get it right. Frustrated and annoyed, her teachers finally gave up and she became known as Myra O'Donnel. The name soon became popular as an alternative to the bland and common Mary, reaching all time popular heights in 1912 as the one of the top ten most popular girls names.
The name is still commonly used today, even in popular culture with characters such as Myra McQueen in Hollyoaks, who proudly displays her name on a t shirt The name Myra was around way previous to 1902. In fact, Myra is the name of an ancient Roman town that was established in 168 BC. It is now located in modern Turkey.
The Catholic Saint, Nicholas, was said to have been from Myra. Many believe that the name is from Hebrew origins.

So, a unique name for a our wonderful surprise. Our first son is Joseph Carter. Joseph is a family name on my SO's side (grandfather, father, uncle, cousin, and SO) and I just loved the name Carter.
He goes by his middle name. When I was pregnant with my second son the only baby name I even thought of was Mason. I tried to look through the name book, but I kept coming back to Mason.
Then at Christmas time last year on my way home from my parents' house my brother's gf text me and asked me what I thought of the name Mason- and I hadn't told anyone that's what I was thinking! It was like a sign that it was meant to be! And his middle name is Elias which is my SO's grandfather's middle name.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
