Reply to: Re: cant find my name by Destri Ferguson
Hi there Destri!
My partner and I are going to call one of our children Destri as we just fell in love with the name the first time we met a guy in the RNZAF named Destri!
I wanted to look up the meaning of the name and found this out - so here is my version and the reasons behind the name meaning.

I had to break it down into two parts...

Des - meaning Desire
Tri - meaning geometry in french - the study of shapes

So I put the two together and the meaning I will explain to my child is Destri - Shaped Desire.

Hope that this helps you out and that you will write back to me at my email and let me know what you think.

Cheers
Cherie
