well, thats exactly the word I was given, so I dunno. Actually, none of you can solve this cause the person that gave it to me tald me a few minutes ago that you have to know her personally to get it. Thanks anyway though.

No no guys, he said [she said] it had to do with her personally.

How about, they're all something she's had? ;)

aunts and uncles, horses and flies ...

This makes more sense, no?

Maybe they're can all be made up out of the letters of her name?

Now try and guess her name!
