Answer 1

Your name in spanish is the same as in greek or english: Melissa, meaning "honey bee". The meaning doesn´t change because you change the language. If you would like to know how to say "honey bee" in spanish it´s "abeja". No need to say "abeja de miel" because all bees produce honey.

Answer 2

Your name doesn't change just because you speak another language. You might use a different version of your name, but Melissa will always be your name (unless of course you change it legally through the court system).

Answer 3

Most names are the same in English and in Spanish simply because that "word" has been chosen to be your name. There are some names that are different or actually have a Spanish "word" for them ie: Sergio is Spanish for Cedric, Juan is John, Alejandro is Alexander, Andres is Andrew. Other times the spelling remains the same the only thing that actually changes is the pronunciation ie; Angelica pronounced An-jell-ic-ca in English is AN- HEL-IC-CA ins Spanish or Jacob is jak-ob in English and ha-cobe in Spanish

Tronjil is the only other word that I could find associated with Melissa, however it refers to a plant.

and the meaning - honey bee- is like any other name meaning ie- Brian means Strong one and Angela means angelic.

hope that helps
