I've googled a bit and found these meanings of your English name: English origins - linden (tree), German origins - snake, Spanish - beautiful, cute. So you are beautiful tree (hope this phase won't insult you). But I've got no choice. I DEFINITELY AM small ))) There's no chance to speculate with it for me while you have an option. I AM small but HIGH-SPIRITED)))
