Whence it comes is from a dream. About ten years ago I had the most
vivid dream of my life, in which I was given a name. In the dream
a computer print-out showed me the spelling and pronunciation. Then
a movie showed me the meaning. It showed a man in a small Russian
village about a hundred years ago, who was part of a circus...
he came on just before the trained bear. He did not wear a costume,
but he was funny in a way that showed his own quirks, which allowed 
others to more easily accept and laugh at themselves.

Then a voice boomed, "And your last name is Raphaella!" Well I looked
that up and found that Rahael in Hebrew means angel of healing.

So I changed my name! And that's that story...

I'm actually just a little Irish wench, in spite of the exotic
moniker...
