Medusa is a female name in the United States, and has been growing in popularity in recent decades. There are approximately 0 people named Medusa in the US today.
The name Medusa's root letters are MD.
The letter D dominates the MD names and imbues them with a decisive sense of decency, dignity and discipline. And since names that begin with the maternal letter M are associated with so many things that are motherly and merciful, the MD combination understandably creates the strongly humane effect found in the words medicine, mediation, Madonna, modest, modulate, and mindful. There’s something comforting about MD personalities even if their independent spirits make them impossible to rely on.
Medusas are explorers at heart who insist on learning about life through first-hand experience; even if it means enduring some hard knocks on the way. People seem to appreciate their frank approach to relationships and hardly anything comes out of the Medusas’ mouths that isn’t carefully calculated. And even when Medusas do happen to do something boorish, they are largely self-correcting: their feminine instincts quickly kick in to patch up any damage.
Medusas are perfectionists with a self-critical streak to rival a Quaker. But despite their cool exteriors, they are emotionally quite sensitive and you shouldn’t be fooled into thinking they weren’t hurt by that unkind remark you just made. The thing that galls them more than anything is when someone talks about them behind their backs. This is one behavior they’d never stoop to and they can’t abide any form of disloyalty or betrayal.
Many Medusas were tomboys growing up, but as adults, Medusas are paragons of femininity. Still, there are remnants of childishness that manifest in impetuous display of autonomy, which sometimes leads to strange life choices. For example, a MD may be a homemaker one day, then with bee firmly in bonnet, careen off and take up karate. Even if they’re not as extreme in their career choices as some, the Medusas’ dual nature certainly gives them an advantage in the workplace where they’re happy doing anything that doesn’t involve a commute or a nine-to-five routine.
Courtship and marriage with this energetic creature requires a suitor who can deal with her ups and downs. Her ready smile and warm spirit may seem like an invitation to potential mates; but she’s going to be choosy. For like most people whose names begin with the letter M, Medusas are protective of their feelings and have no compunction about turning down partners who they suspect don’t have their best interests at heart. Partners that are willing to put her feelings first will find the relationship to be remarkably free of complications but are advise never to take her for granted.
