Origin of the name Melissa
Origin of the name Melissa
The name Melissa is derived from Greek mythology. Melissa was a nymph that cared for the infant Zeus while he was being hidden from his father, the king of the gods. Melissa plundered bee hives in order to feed honey to Zeus, who developed a permanent sweet tooth.
When Melissa's role in protecting Zeus was discovered, Zeus turned her into a honeybee, which is forever involved with making
honey.
My favorite character is Winnie the Pooh.
My favorite tv show of all time is My So-Called Life...I cried the day they took it off the air.
