The World

Today I was booking a flight for a man who had a middle eastern sounding name, as did his wife. When I was adding his child's name I commented it was an unusual name and asked about it. He told me when his child was born he was speaking to his mother about what to name is newborn. He was having difficulty coming up with a name and asked for her advise.
She said, "well, what does this child mean to you?"
He replied, "She means the world to me."
She said, "well, you have your name."
He named her Doonyah which means "world" in Farsi.
LOVE it!
