Description

Jiron is the Marshallese word for a young woman. (See: http://www.trussel2.com/MOD/MED2J.htm#JIR ).

Mejro literally means "those eyes," (see: http://www.trussel2.com/MOD/MED2M.htm#m%C4%81j ), though it may also be a reference to Majuro Atoll, the capital of the Marshall Islands, if these particular girls are from that atoll.
