Muriel Harris Weinstein: Hi, my name is Muriel Harris Weinstein. My first name Muriel, is very old fashioned. My mother said that she chose the name Miriam at first. Then she was reading a romantic novel, and the heroine is Muriel. She fell in love with the heroine, so named me Muriel. I don't like the name Muriel. I love the name Miriam. The one she didn't pick. But now I'm used to Muriel. My middle initial is H for Harris. A family name, which is an Irish clan. And my last name, Weinstein was my husband's name. The original meaning is a mug of wine, so drink up everyone. But put in your favorite fruit juice.
