About Only Aaron

A group for anyone who is named Aaron. Photos can be by or of someone named Aaron.

The reason I started this group was because I never knew anyone named Aaron like me. Recently I seem to be meeting a lot.

A Google search on my full name reveals there are a lot of Aaron Edwards into sports (so unlike me) - a few of them are even popular. I get emails asking if I am that Australian Football player (soccer for us Americans). Until go-go dancing is recognized as an official sport (by the Olympics or more likely, Brazil) I really can't consider myself into sports.

Anyway, I digress...

About the name Aaron:

Apparently it means Lofty and Enlightened from some baby name book I read.

Wikipedia says:

The meaning of the name "Aaron" is unclear. Possible meanings are:

1. Pregnancy - In Hebrew - הריון. In Ancient Egyptian herr is to conceive and hrara is conception.
2. From the mountain - In Hebrew הר - 'HAR', which may refer to place of his death.
3. High mountain - In Arabic هارون - 'HAROUN' or 'HARUN'.
4. One of light.

In the Bible, Aaron was the brother of Moses. Some say Aaron spoke for Moses because the latter had a speech impediment. Who knows who comes up with this stuff, but it would make good fodder for the remake of The 10 Commandments I think.

So Aaron - you of the double A - the one who gets late night cell phone calls because your drunk friends have you listed first on their cell phone - join the group and show or tell us what it's like being an Aaron.



Best -

Aaron Edwards
