The meaning behind my name

When I was a 4^th year HS student, we had a homework in the subject Christian Living and Values Education (CLVE) about the origin of our name. We should also find out what our name tells about us. I kind of hate my second name (Henry). Well, I can’t do anything about it.

ORIGIN OF MY NAME

Redel

From my father’s name Rey and my mother’s name Delia.

Henry

From the Germanic name Heimiric which meant "home ruler", composed of the elements heim "home" and ric "power, ruler". This name was introduced into Britain by the Normans. It was borne by eight kings of England including the infamous Henry VIII, as well as four kings of France and seven kings of Germany. Other famous bearers include arctic naval explorer Henry Hudson, novelist Henry James, and automobile manufacturer Henry Ford.

I remember that I spent a lot of time searching in the internet for the origin of my name (Redel) but I didn’t find anything so I decided to invent the origin. LOL!
