UZMA: A good try, but some of those are not words;-)

I think you are pointing Hera and Reham, Hera is "the ancient Greek queen of heaven, a daughter of Cronus and Rhea and the wife and sister of Zeus". And I will change Rehma to Reham, which is an arabic name .

UZMA: If you use proper nouns, then the start with a capital letter, and you used 'rhema'.
KATLIN:On the right track;-)
