Sharon Howley
Sharon ( he, שָׁרוֹן ''Šārôn'' "plain") is a given name as well as an Israeli surname. In English-speaking areas, Sharon is now predominantly a feminine given name. However, historically it was also used as a masculine given name. In Israel, it is used both as a masculine and a feminine given name. Etymology The Hebrew word simply means "plain", but in the Hebrew Bible, is the name specifically given to the fertile plain between the Samarian Hills and the coast, known (tautologically) as Sharon plain in English. The phrase "rose of Sharon" (חבצלת השרון ''ḥăḇaṣṣeleṯ ha-sharon'') occurs in the KJV translation of the Song of Solomon ("I am the rose of Sharon, the lily of the valley"), and has since been used in reference to a number of flowering plants. Unlike other unisex names that have come to be used almost exclusively as feminine (e.g. Evelyn), ''Sharon'' was never predominantly a masculine name. Usage before 1925 is very rare and was apparentl ...

Órlaith McAuliffe
Órlaith (older spelling: Órfhlaith, newer spelling: Orlagh Órla) is an Irish language female given name. The meaning of the name derives from Ór, meaning "Golden" and Flaith, meaning "prince" although as names with "flaith" suffixes are almost always exclusively feminine, this is usually interpreted as meaning "princess". The retention of the 'fh' within the spelling maintains the ability to easily derive the true meaning of the name, but as this is silent, it is common to see this redacted. All spellings of the name are however pronounced the same, as "OR-la". Bearers of the name * Órfhlaith Begley, Member of Parliament for the West Tyrone constituency in the United Kingdom parliament. * Órfhlaith Foyle, Irish author. * Órlaith íngen Cennétig, Queen of Ireland, died 941 (executed). * Órlaith Ní Maoil Seachnaill, Queen of Midhe, died 1066. * Órlaith Nic Cennétich, died 1104. * Órlaith Ní Mael Sechlainn, Queen of Connacht, died 1115. * Órlaith Ní Diarmata, Pri ...
