Melody

Origin: (Greek, Latin, English, French)

Pronunciation: (MEL-a-dee)

Gender: Female


I had a friend a few years back named Melody. I moved away and lost contact. I recently heard this name on Doctor Who the T.V Show. Melody Pond (Also Known as River Song) was the daughter of Rory and Amy's the Doctors recent travelling companions. I don't know if I would ever name a character this though. It is a lovely name with a very pretty meaning.
