Things I learned about the name Miriam from Big Miriam....
1. Some people think that Miriam was Moses' wife. False, she was Moses' sister.
2. It is definitely not a name you hear often. Big Miriam only knows of one other Miriam and they were both extremely excited to know that there was a little Miriam.
3. There are a lot more Miriams that speak Spanish than English.
4. It is usually mispronounced, Mariam. To everyone out there, especially those with a southern accent.... her name is spelled with an "I" and pronounced accordingly :)
5. Some nicknames out there are Miri and Mimi, but most like to just be called Miriam.
Thanks Big Miriam for coming over and playing and sharing so much great info about y'alls sweet name!
