What does David mean in Egyptian hieroglyphics?
David is originally a Hebrew name, not Egyptian and in its original form it was pronounced Dawid, meaning "one who is loved".The Ancient Egyptian language does not include the letter "v", and there is no word like dwd in Egyptian.

What is a maiden name?
In the English-speaking world, until recently it was the universal custom that upon marriage the woman would take the surname of her husband. Before marriage, she would use the surname of her father. When a woman was not married, she was a "maiden," a woman who never had sexual relations. So the "maiden name" of a woman is the surname she used before marriage, usually that of her father. Your mother's maiden name is the surname your mother used before she ever married, and is thus her father's (your maternal grandfather's) surname. Before computers were widely used for activities such as genealogy and fan gossip, knowledge of the maiden name of one's mother was not readily available to people outside the immediate family. That name was therefore used as a security device by banks and other institutions. When you opened an account, you gave them your mother's maiden name. Later, if you needed to change the account, your knowledge of your mothers maiden name helped to assure them that you were, in fact, the valid account holder. Now that genealogies are widely posted on the Internet this is a much less secure method of identification. If a woman never marries, her maiden name remains the same. e.g. her birth name, e.g. the name of her legal father.

If you get married after you become famous do you keep your maiden name or take on the husband's last name?
It doesn't matter if you're famous or not, every time a female gets married they decide whether or not to keep their maiden name. That is a matter of preference; there is no law that says a woman has to take her husband's last name, whether she's famous or not. Many women choose to keep their maiden name as part of their married name and hyphenate. For example, Mary Smith marries John Doe, then her name is Mary Smith-Doe.
Why do some Jamaican Olympic women athletes have hyphenated last names?
Here in Jamaica (like every where else) when we are born we take our father's surname. But when we get older and if we choose to marry we take our husband's name or we take it but keep our name also BUT note briefly if a man marries a woman he cannot take the woman's surname. So for example, say your father's name is Junior Gorffe. So when you are born then your surname will be Gorffe. Say your name is Janae. So you will be Janae Gorffe. Now suppose when you get older you meet a nice young man/woman and you want to marry he/she and their name is Rayvon Clarke when you get married you can become Mrs.Janae Clarke or if you choose Mrs. Janae Gorffe-Clarke. So as you see now it is not only our athletes that have hyphenated names. And ofcourse it is not a custom because you get to choose out of the two ways; hyphenated or not.
