Perna

Meaning: (One who dealt in Pearls, Portuguese: habitational name from any of several places named Perna in Portugal. Catalan and Portuguese: from perna ‘leg’; possibly a nickname for someone with long legs, or with a deformed or missing leg.)

Origin: (Italian, Latin, Middle English, Norman, Portuguese)

Pronunciation:  (PUR-nuh, PER-nuh, per-NAH)

I was watching an episode of Stargate: Atlantis and one of the scientists on one of the worlds they visit were named Perna. I think the name is exotic and pretty. The name has a pretty decent meaning and is easily pronounced in my opinion.
