xd You guys are silleh. Oh, hey, I have another website for finding out the meaning of your name. n_n I love this one, too, it has a random name generator! Handy-dandy for those hard-to-name characters! ^o^ http://www.behindthename.comHmmmm, mine gets... "Feminine form of Bobby." Okay, we'll try that one. And it geeeeeets... "Diminutive of BOB. Hockey greats Bobby Hull (1939-) and Bobby Orr (194 cool have borne this name." Oooookay. *clicks on Bob* "Short form of ROBERT. It arose later than Dob, Hob and Nob, which were medieval rhyming nicknames of Robert." This is annoying. *clicks on Robert* Thar we go, progress!!! ^o^ ROBERT Gender: Masculine Usage: English, French, Scandinavian, German, Czech, Polish, Russian, Slovene, Romanian Other Scripts: Роберт (Russian) Pronounced: RAH-bərt (English), ro-BER (French), RO-bert (German), RAW-bert (Polish), RO-byert (Russian), RO-beert (Russian) [key] Means "bright fame", derived from the Germanic elements hrod "fame" and beraht "bright". The Normans introduced this name to Britain, where it replaced the Old English cognate Hreodbeorht. It has been a very common English name since that time. The name has been borne by two early kings of France, two Dukes of Normandy, and three kings of Scotland, including Robert the Bruce who restored the independence of Scotland from England in the 14th century. The author Robert Browning (1812-1889) and poets Robert Burns (1759-1796) and Robert Frost (1874-1963) are famous literary bearers of this name. Other bearers include Robert E. Lee (1807-1870), the commander of the Confederate army during the American Civil War, and American actor Robert Redford (1936-). xd Name still means Bright Fame, woot!! Let's try Jean... "JEAN (1) Gender: Masculine Usage: French Pronounced: ZHAWN [key] French form of Jehan, the Old French form of Iohannes (see JOHN). The French philosophers Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-177 cool and Jean Paul Sartre (1905-1980) were two well-known bearers of this name. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- JEAN (2) Gender: Feminine Usage: English Pronounced: JEEN [key] Medieval English variant of Jehanne (see JANE). It was common in England and Scotland during the Middle Ages, but eventually became rare in England. It was reintroduced to the English-speaking world from Scotland in the 19th century." ... *sigh* *clicks on Jane* "JANE Gender: Feminine Usage: English Pronounced: JAYN [key] Medieval English form of Jehanne, an Old French feminine form of Iohannes (see JOHN). This became the most common feminine form of John in the 17th century, surpassing Joan. Famous bearers include the uncrowned English queen Lady Jane Grey (1536-1554), who ruled for only 9 days, the British novelist Jane Austen (1775-1817), who wrote 'Sense and Sensibility' and 'Pride and Prejudice', and the British primatologist Jane Goodall (1934-). This was also the name of the central character in Charlotte Bronte's novel 'Jane Eyre' (1847)." ...well, dammit! *clicks on John* "JOHN Gender: Masculine Usage: English, Biblical Pronounced: JAHN (English) [key] English form of Iohannes, the Latin form of the Greek name Ιωαννης (Ioannes), itself derived from the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan) meaning "YAHWEH is gracious". This name owes its popularity to two New Testament characters, both highly revered saints. The first was John the Baptist, a Jewish ascetic who was considered the forerunner of Jesus Christ. The second was the apostle John, who was also supposedly the author of the fourth Gospel and Revelation. This name was initially more common among Eastern Christians in the Byzantine Empire, but it flourished in Western Europe after the First Crusade. In England it became extremely popular: during the later Middle Ages it was given to approximately a fifth of all English boys. The name (in various spellings) has been borne by 21 popes and eight Byzantine emperors, as well as rulers of England, France, Sweden, Denmark, Poland, Portugal, Bulgaria, Russia and Hungary. It was also borne by the poet John Milton (1608-1674), philosopher John Locke (1632-1704), American founding father and president John Adams (1735-1826), and poet John Keats (1795-1821). Famous bearers of the 20th century include author John Steinbeck (1902-196 cool , assassinated American president John F. Kennedy (1917-1963), and musician John Lennon (1940-1980)." Right, so, Bright Fame + "YAWEH is gracious." Where was I going with this again? oO;

Hm...I wonder...
JOSEPH
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, German, Biblical
Pronounced: JO-səf (English), zho-ZEF (French), YO-zef (German) [key]
From Iosephus, the Latin form of Greek Ιωσηφος (Iosephos), which was from the Hebrew name יוֹסֵף (Yosef) meaning "he will add". In the Old Testament Joseph was the eleventh son of Jacob. Because he was the favourite of his father, his older brothers sent him to Egypt and told their father that he had died. In Egypt, Joseph became an advisor to the pharaoh, and was eventually reconciled with his brothers when they came to Egypt during a famine. This name also occurs in the New Testament, belonging to Saint Joseph the husband of Mary and Joseph of Arimathea.
In the Middle Ages, Joseph was a common Jewish name, being less frequent among Christians. In the late Middle Ages Saint Joseph became more highly revered, and the name became popular in Spain and Italy. In England it became common after the Protestant Reformation. This name was borne by rulers of the Holy Roman Empire and Portugal. Other notable bearers include Polish-British author Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) and the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin (1878-1953).
...Okay o.o
ERIC
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, Swedish
Pronounced: ER-ik (English), er-EEK (French) [key]
From the Old Norse name Eiríkr, derived from the elements ei "ever" and ríkr "ruler". A notable bearer was Eiríkr inn Rauda (Eric the Red in English), a 10th-century navigator and explorer who discovered Greenland. This was also the name of several early kings of Sweden, Denmark and Norway.
This common Norse name was first brought to England by Danish settlers during the Anglo-Saxon period. It was not popular in England in the Middle Ages, but it was revived in the 19th-century, in part due to the children's novel 'Eric, or Little by Little' (185 cool by Frederic William Farrar.
...Okay...again o.o
I wonder...*looks up Aldrick*
Darn, this was the closest one...
ALDRIC (K :3)
Gender: Masculine
Usage: French
From a Germanic name, derived from the elements ald "old" and ric "ruler, power". Saint Aldric was a 9th-century bishop of Le Mans.

Haha...ha...haa.... I was about to go on a ramble about the whole FF names thing, but then I remembered that I've already done that on more than one occasion. So instead of wasting even more space with my ramblings, I'll just let you go to the excellently massive list of name origins at FF Compendium. Many, many of those, however, are obvious if you're an adept study in "mythology", as it were. Wow, I think I've said that before. Anyway....Enjoy the list. I know I do. Knowledge is, indeed, power. Muwahahahahahahhaa!!! ^_^

She was a popular saint in the Middle Ages, and the name became common then. In England it is traditionally rendered Madeline, while Magdalene or Magdalen is the learned form

ANTHONY
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English
Pronounced: AN-thə-nee, AN-tə-nee [key]
English form of the Roman family name Antonius, which is of unknown Etruscan origin. The most notable member of the Roman family was the general Marcus Antonius (called Mark Antony in English), who for a period in the 1st century BC ruled the Roman Empire jointly with Augustus. When their relationship turned sour, he and his mistress Cleopatra were attacked and forced to commit suicide, as related in Shakespeare's tragedy 'Antony and Cleopatra' (1606).
The name became regularly used in the Christian world due to the fame of Saint Anthony the Great, a 3rd-century Egyptian hermit who founded Christian monasticism. Its popularity was reinforced in the Middle Ages by the 13th-century Saint Anthony of Padua, the patron saint of Portugal. In English it has been commonly (but incorrectly) associated with Greek ανθος (anthos) "flower", which resulted in the addition of the h in the 17th century.
Yeah... I'm totally awesome!
