Concerning my name: Beldroega

In Portugal it is also known as "Ora-pro-nobis", or, "eleven-hours", or even "verdolaga", "beldroega-pequena" and "beldroega-verdadeira".

In English it is called "Porcelain"

Specifically it is a plant and the scientific name for it is: Portulaca Oleracea

About my surname: Luis (Lewis)

It has is origins in Normandy, in the north of France. The Normans - "They were descended from Norse Viking conquerors of the territory and the native population of Frankish[2] and Gallo-Romanstock.[3]"
From the Normandic personal name Lowis and Ludocicus, my name means, "fame" and "war", because in is composition we can see the Germanic elements hlod and wig.

Some of the information presented here, was gathered @ the Wikipedia website.
