What is the meaning of your first name, what did it derive from, and do you think it suits you?

I really just want the meanings. For example, the name Earl means "Noble Warrior" and is derived from old English. You don't have to tell me your real christian name, I am just curious about its meaning and whether or not you think it suits you. It's a silly question.

Reply:My name is derived from Greek meaning "pure". It USED TO apply to me. No one calls me by my first name.
Reply:Lindsay comes from the island of Linden trees %26amp; is of old English origin. I wouldn't really say it fits me, but I don't know what name would. My parents named me after Lindsay Wagner (not because they liked her, they liked the name). They thought they were being "unique" because they'd never met anyone named Lindsay, but now it's very, very popular %26amp; I hear it a lot. Gets mispelled allllll the time.

Reply:My name is Gavin, which is celtic for white hawk/ battle hawk (different websites have said different things). Gavin is derived from the middle English name Gawain (as in Sir Gawain of the knights of the round table). I think the name is fairly nonsensical, and doesn't exactly reflect my personality.
Reply:My first name is Francis. It means free in some language. I hate it. I go by Frank. It was my mother's idea. Both my first and last names are girl's names. I've thought about changing both of them, but my mother wouldn't like that. She's 95 and going strong.
Reply:My first name means comforting and consoling and it was the name of a very important and strong woman in my religion. It is an arabic name. I love it and i think it's important and i try to live up to its meaning and i try to be as strong and to have as much faith as the pious woman who had this same name.
Reply:Name is Melissa - of Greek origin - means Honeybee. Yes I guess it suits me. Never really thought about it. I just know my mother got it from a soap opera (Another World, I think) back in the late sixties. Wow am I dating myself or what? lol
Reply:I am named after the Great Goddess, Isis. She is the consort of Osiris and together they bring life to all living things. I became a novice priestess at age 14 and continue to serve in Her temple each day.
