Litteraly it means thorn-rose. This a the tale (in short): Once upon a time, a little princess
is born. But when they celebrate the birth, there's one woman (I think it's her ant or something like that) not invited. Because of this, she gets really angry, and puts a curse on Doornroosje: when Doornroosje reaches a particular age (don't remember what exactly) she will prick herself to the thorn of a rose, and fall in a deep sleep for 100 years long. And so it happens... Doornroosjes fall asleep for 100 years. But then a prince comes and saves her (sorry, can't remmber how), and they live happily ever after.

hope this has helped you...

Greetz, Marjolein
