Today isπChristmas Eve! And so I will be talking about the very π happy name: πMerry❗
The meaning of merry: "full of cheerfulness or gaiety; joyous in disposition or spirit." πMerry is ultimately from Old English myrige.
Behind the Name says Merry is a diminutive of πMercy: "from Latin merces "wages, reward", a derivative of merx "goods, wares.""
Nameberry describes Merry as: "lighthearted, happy. She'd better be." π And insists Merry is a classic name for Christmas babies. ππΆπ Merry was at a π peak in 1969 at #949 on the US Top 1000 baby πnames list π and surprisingly hasn't risen anymore.
The most Merrys happily (hopefully❗) live in πCalifornia and πSouth Dakota.
I really like πMerry. π€ It's a really pretty name. It's kind of simple (a la the timeless πMary, the two πsound so similar) but Merry has more pizzazz π₯ with its bright π meaning. π
