A name is NOT just a name
The name Maya is very special. It means blessed in a certain language. I just dont remember what lanuage it is in. I am named after the famous poet Maya Angelou. My middle name is Eulea. It comes from the root word meaning out spoken. They got this name from a lady that was on Oprah and they liked it so that became my middle name. My mother and my grandmother both named me. My grandma and mom both love Maya Angelou's work and thought she would be a great person for me to be named after. If I could I would never change my name (except my last name but only after im married). I would never change it because number one my mom and my grandma named me and I love them so much. Also I wouldnt change my name because it defines me, Iam blessed and I am out spoken.
