Mirjam

Mirjam is a Hebrew baby name traditionally associated with the feminine gender. The meaning of Mirjam is 'drop of the sea' or 'star of the sea.' As a variant of Miriam, it is the name of the sister of Aaron and Moses in the old testament. Also, the name is affiliated with the Greek names Mar and Mariám, which are in the New Testament and mean 'longed-for child' or 'beloved.' Both come from the Hebrew name Maryâm/Miryâm, depicting Mary or Miryam. The prominence of the characters identified with the name in the bible is the reason for its wide adoption. The name also has a link with several Egyptian words. These include the Ancient Egyptian word 'meritamen', which means 'liked by Amun,' Mr., which means 'love,' and Myr, which means 'beloved.' Some contemporary notables with the name include Mirjam Jäger, a Swiss skier and model; Mirjam Mous, a Dutch children's author; Mirjam de Koning, a Dutch paraplegic swimmer; Mirjam Weichselbraun, an Austrian TV presenter; Mirjam Pressler, a German novelist; Mirjam Puchner, an Austrian skier; Mirjam Lydia Indermaur, a Swiss marketer and author; and Mirjam Wiesemann, a German actress.

Lucky

Mirjam lucky number is 1.

1 symbolizes a pioneering spirit, independent nature, and innate leadership capabilities. On a bad day, 1 can be a bit bossy or boastful, hiding any insecurities behind over-developed self-importance. 1 must remember that although it is first, it can very quickly become the loneliest number. Even the most autonomous 1s need the support of their friends, family, and lovers.
