It means WHAT?!?!
The Tomkitten has graced us with her presence, and already the poor little best hope for scientology's future is the butt of numerous jokes, the subject of countless spoofs and parodies.
I don't really care all that much about the pink, wriggly, placenta-covered evidence of Tom Cruise's ability to procreate, but I have to say, the name intrigued me.
Suri. Which is apparently Hebrew for Princess. Uh huh. Funny, I thought Sarah, Sara, Sarai, Sari, Sarit, Sydelle, and Sarita were Hebrew for princess.
Maybe Tom's dyslexia has gotten the better of him?
biblicalbabynames.com finds no Suri among its entries, but offers tzuriel, zuriel, and zuriela as alternatives (none of which means princess).
myhebrewname.com turns up very different results when transliterated into the alefbet.
In fact, none of the dozens of baby name sites that I searched listed Suri as a Hebrew name.
So TomKat, just be honest. You did what all celebrity couples do when faced with the daunting task of giving your spawn a handle that will set them apart from us mere mortals. You panicked, made something up, and then had your agents provide a convincing backstory to Entertainment Tonight.
You can go back to organizing your playdates with Apple and Banjo now.

I'm just waiting for the story to break that Katie's suffering post-partum depression...
