Next, etymology---Where does your name come from? What is the origin? What does it mean? Why did your parents choose this name over any others? Is there a story behind your name or were you named after a family member? Explain thoroughly! (Do the etymology and pronunciation for both first and last name. See example on back)

Helpful hints: Baby name websites are a great place to find info about your name. Look them up on your phones! If you don’t have a smartphone, you’ll have to wait till you get home. If you need help with parts of speech that define you ask the friends sitting next to you, or your parents. They know you better than anyone.

Musil, Meredith A.

AKA: Mere, Musil, Merebear, Seester, Turkey

Musil—(mew-sill)

Surname Meaning & History:

Czech; also Polish (Musil): anecdotal nickname from a lost anecdote, meaning something like ‘from the muse.’ From the past tense of Czech musit, Polish musiec ‘of or relating to music.’ Musil is fairly uncommon last name and my branch of the Musil tree is even less common. My grandfather had four daughters and two sons, one of which died at birth. My father only had one son and Marshall will be the only one to carry on Marlin Musil’s branch of the Musil family tree. I’m proud to have Musil as my last name.

Meredith (MARE-a-dith, ma-RARE-dith, MER-e-dith,, MER-dith)

Gender: Male/Female

Usage: Welsh, English

Variant: Merideth, Meridith, Meradith, Meredithe, Meredyth, Merridie, Merry, Maredud, and Meredydd

Popularity: #596 in the United States

Meaning & History:

Until the 20th century, the name Meredith was associated as a masculine name, as the meaning is "lord." Meredith comes from the old Welsh male name Mareludd, which probably means “great lord.” In recent years the name has been given to girls. My mom wanted to name me Rachel, Sarah, or Dru (which I secretly love!) But my dad overruled her and named me Meredith after Dallas Cowboy quarterback Don Meredith.
