    So yeah, I guess it's quite descriptive.
    Nice deduction. So I guess "Yarin" means "struck by the frying pan," then

    New web dictionary:
    Yarin - struck by the frying pan
    Elysia - struck by lightning

    ( :: ) - four dots planet. Planet for girls only. :: in Braille means G. G for girls.

    2 reasons.

    1) Compared to the majority of you all, I'm much older at 45.
    2) My day job is programming in Assembler on IBM mainframe computers, and they have a nickname of being called Dinosaurs.

    Dino!!!!

    I'm not toying with you guys. That's really what Elysia means. Look here!

    Look, here is my name as the correct meaning: http://www.babynameshq.com/name/Yarin;
    According to http://www.behindthename.com/name/yaron, Yarin doesn't exist, and "Yaron" means to sing.

    Ah, so yeah she was right: http://www.behindthename.com/name/elysia
    Sorry about that.
    http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/ stinks.
