My first name, Sarah, means "lady" or "princess" in Hebrew. My middle name, Suzanne, is the french version of Susanna, and is therefore unfit to have a meaning of it's own. Susanna means "lily," also in Hebrew.

Ragnor, my "true" first name (Reine is a variation, but its actually Ragnor, only my family in Norway calls me Ragnor though) According to my father, who thought of the name Reine, he got it from Ragnor, twisting the speling of one the alternate variations
