One Handsome Devil! (Prompt: 01/21/24)

Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc.

So, I looked up the meaning of my name and according to several sources, it means “handsome”, “gentle”, “kind” and “beloved”.

Clearly, my mother drank heavily during pregnancy. ๐Ÿคฃ

It’s Irish in origin and derives from the name Caoimhรญn.

From what I also read, in Hindi it is said to mean “comely” and “beloved”

In Germany, however, it is claimed to have a negative connotation.

According to one site: “Kevin is not a name – it’s a diagnosis!”

Okay, maybe mom was more on point than I originally thought. ๐Ÿ˜›

      I try to be as creative as I can with them. Sometimes I think of a song title that fits, and other times something silly will just pop into my head lol
