Re: Meaning of my Fiancee name
Hi, Hilda! Sorry I can't help you with the name, but I have a question for you. I see you're posting from within the United States. I'm just kinda curious as to how you met Shabraiz.-- Nanaea

He jumped out of a cake and everyone in the room shouted "SHABRAIZ"!On a more serious note, maybe the name is related to the Persian word "Shah" meaning king.

Wasn't that a catchphrase of Gomer Pyle? "Well goooooolly! Shabraiz!"
