"The French surname is the French Canadian form of the surname Girou or Giroul, an ancient baptismal name of Germanic origin. It is derived from a nickname, usually illustrating a personal attribute or physical characteristic of the bearer. In this case, the surname derives from a French word signifying either lance or wolf, indicating a military background or a tenacious and fierce disposition on the part of the progenitor. ...Variants of the surname include the feminine form Girouette, from the ancient Norman "wirewite" implying, curiously enough, a propensity for shocking behavior. Other variants are Giroud, Giroult, Girouard, Giroulet and Girousse." - this was taken from a website! :)

It's "voir dire". \nThe phrase "voir dire" derives from Middle French; in modern English it is interpreted to mean "speak the truth" and generally refers to the process by which prospective jurors are questioned about their backgrounds and potential biases before being invited to sit on a jury.\n\nSample Questions to be asked to prospective jurors:\n1. Do you have an opinion concerning the alleged facts in the case?\n2.Are you related to anyone involved with this case?\n3.Have media accounts of this case caused you to form an opinion about the defendant?\n4. Have you ever served on a jury before in a criminal case?\n5. Do you believe our system of justice is fair?\n6. Do you understand that the prosecution must show "beyond a reasonable doubt" that the defendant is guilty as charged?\n7. Will it be hard for you to disregard evidence the judge rules as inadmissible after you've heard it in open court?\n8. Do you believe that the defendant is innocent until proven guilty in this court?\n9. Is there any reason you can't sit as an impartial juror in this case?

If you're talking about last names, it's a little complicated. Last names were a way of identifying yourself back in old times, as where you came from or who your family was, your village, or your clan/tribe. It's been around since before the biblical age. Watch Braveheart with Mel Gibson in it, and pay attention to how they introduce themselves. You'll see what I mean.

Disregard the above answers (except the first.)\n\nThe suffix "inho", in Portuguese, acts as a diminutive and diminutives are used as terms of endearment. Therefore, the nickname (most Brazilian players are known by a nickname, NOT their real names) Ronaldinho means "little Ronaldo", a nice way to call a superb player.\n\nIncidentally, Johnny Serbia, the finesse you exhibited in your answer is about on a par with the quality of play of your namesake team ...\n\nAnd, speaking of unpleasant names, ToT,  just ask someone what your pseudonym means in German. It so perfectly describes the condition of your brain!

If it is in french: \n\n"vrai" means true in french and "a la fin" means at the end.\n\nWhat it says on your family crest is: "true at the end"\n\n(but maybe your family is not french. you should do some reaserch about your family history before)

It seems like a simple typo to me....apparently, you're father verbally gave the spelling of his name to someone that interpreted the U as an O. \nAs a backup, you may want to carry a copy of your father's legal ID with you.\n\nBest of Luck!
