Name origins. I always love going through baby name books and seeing what people's names mean. My first name means "weary" and my middle name means "bitter" in Hebrew. My last name means "foreigner or stranger" in Old French. So I am a weary, bitter stranger. Go figure. How about you?

A good site for last names is here: http://genealogy.about.com/library/surnames/bl_meaning.htm

My first name means "Christ-bearer," my second name means "rejoices" and my last name means "young one."

So, does that mean "Young Christian, full of joy?" ? Right now I feel like it should be "old hag full of crap." ;)

Awwww, you are not! Although, "Young Christian, full of Joy" does sound hard to live up to. How about "Wonderful Person doing her Best"? That works much better. Not sure what that would translate into for name, though :)
