Paul told us at the Paris Zope conference that it was in fact a Britain
word.


But does anyone know the actual meaning of "Zope" in Britain ???

 Zope
 
 Your first name of Zope has given you an expressive, diplomatic, and
 refined nature. Although you have a good appreciation of material
 values, business ability, and skill in organizing and managing others,
 your success is restricted by a lack of self-confidence and initiative.
 You have very expensive tastes, and your desires could well exceed your
 initiative in providing for them through your own efforts. Personal
 appearance is important to you. You are always well-groomed yourself,
 and you judge others by your own standard. You do not like to rough it
 or use much physical energy. Through your diplomatic ways you are able
 to call on the assistance of others to avoid such matters. You have
 good business judgment but lack the confidence to carry out your own
 ideas unless assisted by an associate. From a desire to eat too many
 rich foods, your health could suffer through kidney and generative
 troubles or any problems affecting the fluid functions of the body.
