Roy Patrick Eltham

The meanings, since everyone is posting that too... (thanks google.com)
Roy: King or Ruler
Patrick: Noble or Nobleman
Eltham: "the name of Eltham or ‘Elteham’ is of Anglo-Saxon origin meaning either the ‘family of Elte’ or an old English word ‘elfetu’ which means swan."

Delphi Aegis

posted 11-19-2001 08:59:32 AM
I'd post my real name, but i'm going to change it to Delphi Aegis anyhow, so whats the point?

[ADD:]
Delphi comes from the word Delphic, meaning relating to ancient Delphi or its Oracle.

Aegis again comes from and old word meaning Protection or Sponsorship.

So if you really horribly mangled my name in the translation, I'd be "Oracle of Protection".

I feel like a Zelda game or something.

Does it have a meaning? NO of course not! Don't you look it up to contradict me either, I'm positive there is no meaning! *notes someone ruffling through a book* HEY! I said don't! What, are you trying to make me look like a fool or something? *peers at them suspiciously*

TRENT: (m) From a surname which originally denoted someone who lived by the Trent River in England. Trent is also a city in Italy, though the etymology is unrelated.

CAIN: In Genesis in the Old Testament Cain was the first son of Adam and Eve. He killed his brother Abel after God accepted Abel's offering instead of his.


Though so you all still know, I'm not Trent

The closest I could find was Donald

quote:
DONALD (m) "world rule" from the Gaelic name Domhnall, which is composed of the Old Celtic elements dubno "world" and val "rule". Two kings of Scotland have borne this name.

If you're wondering about the extra "N", it's because I'm named afer my mom, Donna.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

We have alot of Michaels here.

MICHAEL (m) From the Hebrew name Mikha'el meaning "who is like God?". This was the name of one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers. This was also the name of eight Byzantine emperors and a czar of Russia. Other more modern bearers of this name include Michael Faraday, a chemist and physicist who did important work in magnetism and electricity in the 19th century, and basketball player Michael Jordan.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

But to paraphrase the great Locke Cole, "Call me Will or I'll rip your lungs out!"

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

Grammar is your enemy! - While being able to understand someone's sentences might seem like a good idea for a proper essay, complaining on a forum scarcely leaves time for such trivialities. Write fast! You're angry, grrr! Make that show, and forget about things like capital letters, punctuation, and verbs.

CHARLES (m) From the Germanic name Karl, which was derived from a Germanic word which meant "man" (cognate with the Old English word ceorl). The most noteworthy bearer of this name was Charles the Great, commonly known as Charlemagne, a king of the Franks who came to rule over most of Europe. Several Holy Roman Emperors bore this name, as well as kings of England, France, Spain, Portugal, Sweden and Hungary. Other famous bearers include naturalist Charles Darwin who revolutionized biology with his theory of evolution, and novelist Charles Dickens who wrote such works as 'Great Expectations' and 'A Tale of Two Cities'.

Sean.
Oddly common name, even tho most folks spell it wrong.

However, only my parents, and my Fiance call me by my given name. Everybody else calls me by my nickname, Twitch. Its not because I want to be called by my nickname. Its not because I hate my real name. Its because I have stupid friends.

No, its because everywhere I have lived, we had several people named Sean, or John, and nicknames made yelling at eachother easier.

BTW, since you other Sean's dont know it..

Sean, a 1-syllable unisex name of Hebrew/Irish origin, means: God is gracious. Sean's ethnic backgrounds include * Irish * English/Welsh

And the other common spellings, like "Shawn" were created by Limey bastards who thought it had to be phonetic.

Brian (Celtic, means Strong), because my parents liked the way it sounded.

Warren (German, means Defender), after my paternal grandfather.

Johnson (British, means "Son of John," duh).
