ANYWAY. Were you named after something? A person? Place? Anything?
Time to find out the silly name origins of your fellow members!
I was named after the song Rhiannon, by Fleetwood Mac. My dad and his friend were back in highschool, when they made a bet. 'First one to have a baby girl gets to name her that.' Guess my dad won. Yet, he changed the name to make it unique. It's spelled with 'an' at the end instead of 'on'. Now whenever that song plays, my parents say, 'your songs on the radio!' It's weird, cause that song's lyrics are quite similar to describing myself...

Despite everyone trying to say my name in Spanish, the first name was my mother's doing. She wanted to insure that people would definitely mess with me the entire time I grow up. A lot of relationships have been shut down because of it and I guess that was okay.
My middle name was my grandmother's idea. It means "light bringer" according to the religious nuts around here.
Now read that again.
Draw whatever conclusion you want from that.
It's worth noting that I never used my first name. It shows up on legal documents, badges and ID checks but that's all I use it for.

I thought that Lucifer meant light bringer or lord of light.

My second name... I have no idea. I know that it originally comes from one of the people who wrote the gospel's(?) in the New Testament, but I have no idea if my parents were really thinking about that.
So, if my father could have named me, I would have been named after a dog and one of the gospel people. Nice. -_-"

My ex had an interesting naming tradition in his family: The first name of the father always becomes the middle name of the son. Which means that if you name your son Randal (as my ex's grandfather did), both your son AND your grandson will hate you! XD

I don't really like my name, because it means "gentle" and because of that, my mom always told me to be that way.

No real meaning behind my name, but a funny story. My dad stole this name from my aunt when she was having a child. The child would be named David if it was a boy, and Cindy if it was a girl. It was a girl, and my dad named me David.

Nah, Patrick Stewart is simply the best looking bald man that has ever stepped on set wearing an ugly jumpsuit.
Really...I think of all the bald people that look good, this is the only one. It's like, he has the magic.
Ew. I've met a lot of girls named Charlie but never a David.

Thinking of that David post, not cool.
You're a gentle thingy when you WANT to be! RAwR!
Out of boredom I was thinking of where I've seen this name before. I thought of the romanized Japanese words dark and cat. So in Japan, that's a black cat? Do not want. What language is the reference, Indonesian?

yep, my nickname is romanized Japanese of dark cat.. Actually the correct spelling is yamineko, but that nickname is already in use in DeviantArt so I change it to Yamineco.
In Indonesian it would be Kucing Gelap.

It took me a few minutes. This language needs spaces.
This looks exactly what Diego's magic decoder ring would uncover when recrypting Klavier Gavin.
I have no what this is so I'm going to assume it's a Finnish thing that I should definitely know but will likely never understand.

And the joke flies by peoples heads.
My name basically means 'white witch' to the song creator. It also means 'great queen', myths say the name was from a Goddess. You don't see me acting very good on these forums.

Ah. Explains why my brain can't process it at all.
German seems to require a constant flow of bier while Swedish usually requires a series of acid trips and some life-exhausting animalistic sex. At least that's how most of the people around me tend to learn those things with complete understanding.
Super good.

My name's Stefanie, it means "loyal one" or something of that caliber.
I made my Confirmation (Christian sacrament of a rite of passage as an adult to the church) name Francesca after my Father, Frank.
I'm not too sure if I was named after anything, though. I'll ask my parents when I get the chance.

All this time, I was hoping I was named after the song Jessica by the Allman Brothers band... haha that would have been so awesome. I love that song.
I also share the name of a song by Dir en Grey, but unfortunately, there's no chance my parents would have known about it and I do believe the song was written after I was born. Actually, I'm 100% positive.

Yeah, good point. DaemonForce's post didn't make much sense to me, but I doubt that his posts are supposed to make much sense.
