My name is Shahar.
The meaning of "Shahar" in hebrew is somthing like Dawn, the first light of the sun, before the sunrise.

What is your name?
Is there meaning for it?

Anja · 12-22-2006, 11:33 PM

Miss Pink · 12-22-2006, 11:45 PM

my name is vagina, it means "female and strong" in irish

maryb21 · 12-22-2006, 11:47 PM

MARIA
Latinate form of MARY. This was the name of several queens of Portugal. It was also borne by the 18th-century Habsburg queen Maria Theresa, whose inheritance of the domains of her father, the Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI, began the War of the Austrian Succession.

I read it´s like MÁIRE in Irish? am i wrong?
I also read that the name Maria creates the urge to understand and help others, we emphasize that it causes a interfering, bossy quality.

Check this out: "You tend to avoid issues, however, and put off until tomorrow the things which should be done today" OMG that´s so true!! but i am still responsible!

Ok and Maria is the mother of Jesus, so there you go, i can´t be bad can i?

corkboyinexile · 01-03-2007, 06:19 PM

I cant remember the real meaning of Brendan, but I was named after St Brendan the Irish saint of sailors, caused my dad is a ships captain.

Tainted Wheat · 01-03-2007, 07:25 PM

My name is Nick. I don't know the meaning of it, but apparently my dad wanted to name me Carl. I think things ended up for the better. Also, I like oranges.

because I lack originality, my user name is the name of a song... here is a tidbit of the song:

Next we bring intimidation,
Social status segregation
Where you all justify & play consumer
Fear works further toward division,
Indiscriminate spastic decisions
We keep you paranoid, so you can't struggle
It's just beginner's luck if you get out
It's just beginner's luck if you get out
This finely fashioned fairy tale
Spins a web that's indestructible
And rife with lies
Fill your pockets now you're mine

And if you can't find a vein, I'll be the medicine
I'll be the medicine for you
My love only you, my love

We weave a tale of our stark heroics,
swaying the public from our bully pulpits
Create illusions for imperial schemes
poor against the poor for democracy
While we rape that word with a swift incision
snatch up the poverty to fill up the prisons
boost economy with perpetual war
and everything you buy only feeds us more!

I have to admit, I snickered when I read that but then I saw that you were Irish so therefore it's okay.

Rise Sir Rise is from a song I wrote coming out of a deep state of depression of 15. My real name, Morgan means end of the sea. I like it for some reason.

cille · 01-05-2007, 06:55 AM

My name, Cecilie, actually means blind in latin. I can't see why, really..

(I actually thought it meant "Little rainy mountain", but maybe that's in chinese..)

sahika · 01-05-2007, 01:29 PM

StatQuo · 01-07-2007, 09:02 AM

JAN

Gender: Masculine

Usage: Dutch, Scandinavian, Czech, Polish, Slovene, German

Pronounced: YAHN (Dutch, Polish, German) [key]
Form of JOHANNES. This name was borne by Flemish painter Jan van Eyck and Dutch painter Jan Vermeer.

Liv · 01-07-2007, 01:34 PM

Liv means life on danish
Røskva means the sea, She was Thor's servant

Calum · 01-07-2007, 02:10 PM

Calum.

"The boy's name Calum is pronounced KAL-um. It is of Scottish and Gaelic origin. Variant of Columba (Latin) "dove". This was popular among early Christians because the dove was a symbol of gentleness, purity, peace, and the Holy Spirit. Saint Columba was an influential sixth-century Irish missionary who founded a monastery on the Scottish island of Iona. His contemporary, Saint Columban, also Irish, was a missionary in France, Switzerland, and Italy. Calum and its variant Callum may be considered variants of Malcolm in Scotland."

I makes sense, considering my heavy Scottish heritage on both sides of my family. I'm meant to be gentle, pure and peace though... well i am, to a small extent!

That's such a beautiful name; if/when I get a daughter I could totally name her Liv.

Røskva's cool too; it reminds me of Valhalla

Og velkommen forresten!

audity · 01-07-2007, 06:26 PM

Audity - portmanteau of the words "audio" and "oddity"

Although it would literally mean "odd audio," it means "odd music" in my dialect.

For those mathematical people:
"audio" + "oddity" = "Audity"

Livo · 01-09-2007, 07:29 PM

olivia - related to "olive", meaning peace (olive branch?)

but livi or livo for short

Vienna · 01-09-2007, 11:15 PM

well my name is Vienna and apparently is latin meaning 'from wine country' which i guess is kinda appropriate, i'm a bit of a wino!

also the capital of Austria

katiejoey · 01-10-2007, 02:20 PM

My name is Erin and it means "peace" or "peaceful one."

Constanze · 01-10-2007, 07:58 PM

Constanze means being firm, stable, steady, continual and stanch.
I quite like my name for its meaning but also for its sound and for the fact that there`s the word "TANZ" which is German for dance included :-)
all my friends and family members call me "consti" which is..hm..okay

lilia · 01-10-2007, 11:27 PM

I think Lilia has something to deal with flowers in arabic. in ebrew it seems to mean "what belongs to me belongs to God". I like it cause I never met any other Lilia in France, makes me feel unique !

Fool · 01-11-2007, 12:17 AM

Fool

1. a silly or stupid person; a person who lacks judgment or sense.
2. a professional jester, formerly kept by a person of royal or noble rank for amusement: the court fool.
3. a person who has been tricked or deceived into appearing or acting silly or stupid: to make a fool of someone.
4. an ardent enthusiast who cannot resist an opportunity to indulge an enthusiasm (usually prec. by a present participle): He's just a dancing fool.
5. a weak-minded or idiotic person.
6. to trick, deceive, or impose on: They tried to fool him.
7. to act like a fool; joke; play.
8. to jest; pretend; make believe: I was only fooling.

But obviously I'm none of the above

CoconutSkins · 01-13-2007, 05:33 PM

Apparently my name (Elisa) means 'I swear to God'
very interesting, since I don't believe in God. But I don't like my name anyway, even if it meant 'I am the coolest person in the world'.

Oh and my nickname, CoconutSkins, is of course the name of a song by Damien Rice. I was listening to this song while I was signing up, and couldn't think of something better.

verenita · 01-14-2007, 01:29 AM
