My name : Louise

Hello !
My name is Louise. My parents hare chosen this name because it was a usual name in our country and because they liked this name. My sister's name is Lucie for the same reason and because my mom loved the song "Lucie" (Pascal Obispo).

My surname is Lejeune My parents wanted our first names and surnames to begin a "L" because in French, two "L"s" means "2 ailes" (2 wings). They thought that having 2 wings was better to fly in life. I think it's a good idea.

Louise is a popular name. Over 490 000 people are called like this in Europe.

This name comes from the Germanic words:  "hlood" and "wig"and it means "glorious" and "fighter".
