My moms side last name doesn't seem to mean anything.
My dads side name means "a perennial flower shrub or vine of the genus Rosa, within the family Rosaceae " "The name rose comes from French, itself from Latin, rosa, which was borrowed from Oscan, from Greek rhodion (Aeolic wrodion), from Old Persian wurdi "flower" (cf. Avest . warda, Soqdian ward, Parthian wâr)" (Woot, wikipedia!)
"Rose," if you haven't figured it out.
Deep, man. But seriously, a red flower with thorns on the stem.
Prendergast(Irish): Of Welsh origin and uncertain etymology. It is said by its bearers to have been the name of Flemish settlers in Normandy, who took their name from a lost place, Brontegeest, near Ghent in Flanders.
Being that my surname is McNeil, I'll go with the second one, which sucks who doesn't want to be champion. Although the Neil, was a dude who went around jacking fools, bonus!
My lastname doesn't really mean anything, but the lineage of it is extremely interesting, lots of inventors have shared the same last name as me. If anyone wants to read.. its short.
