Names
Different names come from different parts of the world and mean different things. Whats your favorite names?
Tell us about them? Where are they from? What do they mean? DO they run in your family? My favorite names are Alana, Shana, Talitha, Chad, Sean and Dante. Quote:
Talitha means maiden and its a name I got from the bible and a book I read called the unexpected dragon. Quote:
Dante-Medieval short form of DURANTE and its itailian. |
i guess ill go ahead and respond to this since no one did
uhmm i dont exactly have a favorite name uhh..my name means born on christmas day..and it's french i believe? lets see uhh..no it does not run in my family so im special(: lol! |
My name is Tamara and it means date palm tree, I think its Hebrew because its from the Bible. In a couple other languages I think it means spice and lotus flower.
|
My name -Marion- Is Hebrew for 'Bitter sea', although i have read somewhere that it also means 'Wished for child', in what language i'm not sure.
I guess you could say i inherited it from my dads mother, who died a long time before i was born. Names seem to get passed along in my family. My dad, was named after his own father, my brother has my dads middle name/his own uncles for his first name (Edward), and our uncles middle name(James) for his middle name too. My niece was named after my other grandmother, on my moms side. My favourite names i've looked up most of at some point, although i can't remember off the top of my head what they mean. I have a lot of favourite names though so i'll leave it at that. |
My last name has a partial pointless meaning. It's Norwegian for 'On Top Of the Hill.' lol
And my real name is Kaysha. In Africa there is a tree called a 'Akeisha' So. Over all my name means Tree ontop of a hill. My favorite names, my own Kaysha, Koa. Then, Kaden, Kada(girls' version of Kaden). ... I have a 'K' fetish. lol I blame my mom for my fetish. She named all her kids with a C... then there's me. a 'K'. |
I'm named after an angel and a cupid... xD Ironic...
My last name is Sicilian... I'm related to the mafia... but no, I'm not tellin you my name. Anyways, it means = death to man. |
Ahhh favorite names. Fantastic. I've been meaning to get a list of this together anyway, in case I want to use them for any characters...or my future children XD
Female: Gwendolyne Marianne Natalie Nadine Vivian Fern Lucy Ruby Male: Sebastian Siegfried Tadeusz (I think it's a polish/russian version of Thaddeus...I'm not sure how it's pronounced, but I looove the spelling...because I'm strange) Ralleigh Neil Vincent I think my favorite female names are really girly...and my favorite male names are really British-sounding. ^^; I think I read too much. |
I'm very fond of the name Khalil. I looked it up just now and apparently it means 'friend' in Arabic. It does run in my (Lebanese) family - there's at least one Khalil every generation, I'd say. In my family at least it always gets used like it's the Arabic version of Charlie. Like, guys named Khalil will also get called Charlie, and I had an ancestor named Khalil who gets stories about him told a lot, and he's sometimes referred to as Little Charlie.
The non-Lebanese side of my family is Irish, so I have a Gaelic first name. I like Gaelic names. Some of my favorites (none of which are my first name, because I'm paranoid about stalkers) are Moira (version of Mary), Tighe or Tadgh (pretty sure it means poet), and Killian (I've heard it defined both as 'church' and as 'trouble', which amuses me immensely). On the internets I usually go by Marion, which is a diminutive of Mary. I think it suits me almost as much as my real name. I like it both because of the way it sounds and because (despite not really being religious) I'm very fond of the biblical characters of both Mary Magdalene and the virgin Mary. |
Cindy, means "Light" in Latin. [: |
Hmmm...haven't really thought about names, or their meanings, but I do love the whole guy name for a girl thing.
I love the name Jayden and Blake<3 |
Aila
Levi Brodie Teagan Aria Jamal |
My names Mark, as in my parents think it's a nice name.
Seriously, it comes from Mars. :D |
My favorite female names are:
Cora Atlanta Charlotte Jizabel Nadia Angela Marion and others I probably can't remember... My favorite male names are: Archibald Nicholas Mace Sebastian Theodore Soren I'm not sure why, I just do. And I've named all my characters these at one point, so... :3 |
My name is Talya, at the time I was born my mother found my name in a book and it is a form of Talia and it said it was Spanish/Arabic. There are a few different meanings for my name from what we have found. Heaven's Dew and Blooming.

Hrm, well my first name is Mariah [shhhhh don't tell anyone!] which means "Uncertain, bitter" which is a bit true about me. My last name is Crazy Bull, but I don't really know what it means; just from a siuox tribe. [please dun stalk me ;A;] My favorite boy names [my kids are gonna hate me >D]: Kingsley: "From The King's Field" Elliot: "The Lord Is My God" Sebastian: "Venerable" Wesley: "From The West Field" [if I have little Japanese babies like I want....:] Kyoko: "Mirror" [I know it's a girls name, but I like it better for a boy] Enzan: "Flame Mountain" My kids are gonna hate me, but I don't care as long as they wait until after they're 18 to change their names. xD |
Favorite Names...
What are your favorite names for boys? Unique names for boys...I'm trying to name a character and I'm curious.
So what are your favorite names for boys and girls and why? =) I love Jayden and James to get things going. Jayden and James are the names my best friend and I use when we've written little things to each other, and it's special to the both of us. =) |
It's a secret =x
|
Well, my favorite male name is Dietrich. I like the way that it sounds, and it's also a German name, and I can totally relate to that ;D, I'm not sure what my favorite female name is though O.o
|
I won't say it is my favorite, but it is certainly interesting. When researching a name for a character myself I came across Declan. I love it. I think it sounds awesome.
|
Oliver. :]
|
I like Jayden >w< I'm a huge fan on names that start with "J." If I have a son, I want to name him either Jude or Jaeger.
However, I don't really have a favorite name - just names I like because they're the names of my characters :] Like Othello, Lucky, Ryan, and Mike <3 |

I have always liked the name Daniel. Another name I came across one summer at camp was Jamin, which I always thought sounded cool.
|
I like the names Caligula and Lucifer. I just like the sound of the names...though I know better enough not to name my kids that. Pets are not prone from getting called these, though. Caligula means "little boots" and Lucifer means "light bearer."
My boyfriend loves Norse names and he told me if he ever had kids he would name them after gods from Norse mythology. Hee hee |
