What's in a name

Tabitha Riona is her name....Tabitha, which means gazelle in Aramaic, is one of the women of the Bible. She is mentioned in Acts 9:32-43. She was always doing good and helping the poor and Peter rose her from the dead.

Riona, which is Irish/Gaelic and means Queen. It is a shortened and prettier version of Rionach, the more traditional spelling of the name.
