I never really bothered about name meanings. I am bored right now so I will do my whole family >.<

Sharona is of English origin and means "flat clearing"

James is of Hebrew origin and means "supplanter"

Tania is of Slavic origin and means "Fairy Queen of Titiania"

Jade is of Spanish origin and means "green gemstone"

Cora is of Greek Origin and means "heart, maiden"

Origin: French

Meaning: Noble

Origin: Armenian

Meaning: Bearer of the light

But the way my parents chose it, they said that my name comes from Armenian and means the Light.
But it can also come from Helena, and mean the Light.
I have a friend called Lucy, and her name means the Bringer of light. We always joke that she brings me.

I giggled, because the literal translation of "Lucifer" is "Bringer of Light" (lux or lucis meaning "light", and ferre meaning "to bear, bring")
If "Lucy" were spelled "Luci" then her name would just mean light or "one of light"
and Lucime would mean "I am the light"

Sorry, I love Latin. XD

My first name "Sarah" means princess in hebrew I belive.
Quote:

Means "lady" or "princess" in Hebrew
ok a bit off but close. my middle name "Michelle" i'm nbot sure. I was named for my great-grandfather Micheal. It apparently is
Quote:

French feminine form of MICHEL
which comes from Michael means
Quote:

"who is like God?". This is a rhetorical question, implying no person is like God
So i'm a lady who knows about God? Ok that works for me.

Jibril 09-30-2009 07:04 PM

Eh... I think my name means Rational, I forget XD; I'm too lazy to look it up though... It's Alyssa.

I don't think I'm very rational though XD;

Zailynne 09-30-2009 07:16 PM

Chocolate Clouds 10-01-2009 12:35 AM

My first name means

"Bare moor, barren heath"
(whatever that's suppose to mean)

:/

Ryohko 10-02-2009 05:33 PM

My name is Beverly and it means "Beaver in a meadow" in old english. I never did like it's meaning, and I also haven't searched elsewhere for another meaning. Too lazy.

baby_upi 10-02-2009 06:00 PM

Name: Leah,
Its hebrew and means Wary. I think my name suits me very well at times. ;)

Wednesday Ravenside 10-02-2009 07:00 PM

My name is Wednesday. It's just the day really...I doubt it means much. Not like I honestly care though.

juliannaaa 10-02-2009 09:17 PM

My full name is Julianna Marie. A mouthful, I know.
Julianna is the female form of the English Julian, which means "youthful."
Marie is French for "sea of bitterness."

So I guess I'm a youthful sea of bitterness. It's actually rather fitting :angel:

Gawqueenpenguin 10-02-2009 09:22 PM

My name is Virginia... Which means Virginal

The Cheshire Cat 10-03-2009 01:27 AM

Oh geez. The meaning of my first name. Sadly, it means, "Bitter". I know. Talk about terrible. I suppose when you combine it with my middle name, it isn't so bad.

My first and middle name put together mean,
Bitter Desire.

Despite my mother not even planning that, I still with she could have picked a first name that had some pazazz to it... Something with the meaning "passionate" or "Lovely". But bitter?!?! Ah, well. I guess we can't win em' all.

Princess_Marie 10-03-2009 01:50 AM

sorrow or bitterness, which is odd because my middle name means close to god XD.

^ :O we have the same first name? and I know how you feel, my mom is just super religious.

Well, I'm guessing our names are probably close. Does it happen to be Marie? Or Maria? Mine's Maria and guessing by your user name, yours is the first option.

Yeah, all those are versions of Mary which means bitter, thus giving us our name's meaning. Despite it being the name for the woman who gave birth to Jesus in the bible, it kinda seems ironic to me. :P

Princess_Marie 10-03-2009 03:04 AM

It's Mary but I like Marie better but I usually don't like using my real name on things my mom always winds up calling me Maria for some reason.

haha yes it is odd, but also Mary Madalene was happening at that time as well XD which I find even more ironic.
