what does this mean?
All of my family members have odd names that don't appear in name books. Could you possibly find:
Lyla or Lylita
Joestephia
Horestana
Georgeita
Calcita
Benjamina
Neopian

I'm guessing that Joestephia is an invented name, derived from Joseph/Josephine and Stephen/Stephanie, and given to a girl. Horestana looks like a similar invention, possibly based on Orestes or Horace, and once again applied to a female. Georgeita is an obvious feminization of George, apparently by someone who liked adding "ita" better than using the name Georgette, Georgia, or Georgine. Benjamina is a no-brainer--a feminine form of Benjamin.
