My name is a combination of my mother and father's names - Ansellia (a type of orchid) and Joseph (meaning blessed).
So basically my name means blessed flower. Lol

My first name, Fiona, means 'fair white' - maybe thats why I never tan!! And my surname means 'cloth cutter', but I had my surname changed when my mum got re-married. My surname was Rolfe, which means renown.

Hi I'm Sheila Atkinson

My first name is the Irish form of CECILIA. The Anglisized form is Sile (pronounces SEEL)

Usage: English, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, German

Pronounced: sə-SEE-lee-ə (English), sə-SEEL-yə (English), che-CHEE-lyah (Italian), the-THEE-lyah (Spanish), se-SEE-lyah (Latin American Spanish)
