| Michelle is actually a French name (with Hebrew origins?) and is the feminine form of Michel which is French for Michael. It means "like God" and became very popular in the 1970's following the Beatles record of the same name. |

| HB, I’d need to see the face to be able to judge if the face matched the name or not. Dodger. |

| Dodger, thank you for the offer - to judge whether it matches or not.. But hmm... I don't want to show her photo here in public, since I consider it as her private. So any suggestions? - if it's not too much to ask? |

| HB, I was just being a bit cheeky, that’s all. But as Gaffer has implied, people should perhaps look up the history and the meaning of a name before choosing one so as to better match the character of the individual. Just my opinion though. Cheers, Dodger |

| HB, Dodger, or to give him his full title ‘The Artfully Dodger‘ is one of Charles Dickens’ characters from the novel ‘Oliver Twist’ He was a thief and pick pocket. He was eventually caught and sent to the penal colony of Australia, as I was. It’s also rhyming slang for a lodger or someone called Roger. Dickens described him as; “He was a snub-nosed, flat-browed, common-faced boy enough; and as dirty a juvenile as one would wish to see; but he had about him all the airs and manners of a man. He was short of his age: with rather bow-legs, and little, sharp, ugly eyes. His hat was stuck on the top of his head so lightly, that it threatened to fall off every moment--and would have done so, very often, if the wearer had not had a knack of every now and then giving his head a sudden twitch, which brought it back to its old place again. He wore a man's coat, which reached nearly to his heels. He had turned the cuffs back, half-way up his arm, to get his hands out of the sleeves: apparently with the ultimate view of thrusting them into the pockets of his corduroy trousers; for there he kept them. He was, altogether, as roystering and swaggering a young gentleman as ever stood four feet six, or something less, in the bluchers.” Sounds just like me. Cheers, Dodger. |
