Thread: dose any one know what their name means?

Isis I am glad you posted this. I never ever knew what my name meant. You do not have to be sorry for anything.

@isis: Interesting page. Few years ago my Greek teacher already explained to me the meaning of my name. All i could say then and now is: meaning of my name is almost totally opposite to my nature ... that's what u get when parents give a christian name to a black soul.

@EtuMalku: i heard of this many times and i have a question: true name? isn't this true name the reflection of your soul or your true self therefore not the name that u get as a child? how can your mother or father know your true name since the reason for naming u for ex. Deedee is because it was your grandmother's nickname and has absolutely no connection to her name, spirit or anything else? how can this name be a reflection of you, that is, of your true self and how can someone use it against u when it is not Your name? ... i don't really understand that part :S and with all that changing names thing: today i'm suzy, next year i'm Georgina and 2 years later i'm Deedee (no, i DON'T have a thing for this name: Dexter's lab was just on tv and her name is still ringing in my ear)

cool to find out what the vibrations of ones name means of pertains to

everything we do and say has a vibrational frequency to and how it deals with us in life

from names to the color clothes we are attracted to.

There are those that change their names just to change the vibrations of their being

No no no, Isis: I wasn't directing anything towards you or your name, I'm sorry if you perceived it that way, certainly not my intention what so ever.

Yes, your parents wouldn't know the true name of your being, your vibration, perhaps only your Higher-Self / Holy Guardian knows your true name?

it is ok i did not take it that away i was jest saying the reason for the post but i did not want to affend anyone... btw if you are wandering my name is trina and it means young mother in native american cause i am half irsh, native american, syeran, frinch.... but i was jest saprised about what this said that my name means... before my granddad died he called me catrina and i naver ansowered any one who called me that.....

Apologies for reviving an old thread, but this is something I have much interest in. (I'm pseudo-obsessed with names and their meanings.)

TAYLOR

Gender: Masculine & Feminine

Usage: English

Pronounced: TAY-lər [key]
From an English surname which originally denoted someone who was a tailor, from Norman French taillur, ultimately from Latin taliare "to cut". Its modern use as a feminine name may have been influenced by British author Taylor Caldwell (1900-1985).

Heh, my name is Taylor as well. Not from any British author, though; it was my great-grandfather's surname.

My full name means (though I've taken slight liberties in the arrangement of words), "Clothes-maker and defender of the beloved one." If one really wanted it to make sense, I guess it could be condensed to "Armor of the beloved one," but I'm disinclined to that one.

It is fine this thread is good incase it any one wanted to know their names..

Please do what you want with this thread

I just looked up my middle name and this is what i got..

SUZETTE
Gender: Feminine
Usage: French
Pronounced: soo-ZET [key]
French diminutive of SUSANNA

SUSANNA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: Italian, Swedish, Finnish, Russian, Dutch, English, Biblical
Other Scripts: Сусанна (Russian)
Pronounced: soo-ZAN-ə (English) [key]
From Σουσαννα (Sousanna), the Greek form of the Hebrew name שׁוֹשַׁנָּה (Shoshannah). This was derived from the Hebrew word שׁוֹשָׁן (shoshan) meaning "lily" (in modern Hebrew this also means "rose"), perhaps ultimately from Egyptian sšn "lotus". In the Old Testament Apocrypha this is the name of a woman falsely accused of adultery. The prophet Daniel clears her name by tricking her accusers, who end up being condemned themselves. It also occurs in the New Testament belonging to a woman who ministered to Christ.
As an English name, it was occasionally used during the Middle Ages in honour of the Old Testament heroine. It did not become common until after the Protestant Reformation, at which time it was often spelled Susan.

LOL here is mine... by the way, great idea for a thread Isis


MATTHEW
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Biblical
Pronounced: MATH-yoo (English) [key]
English form of Ματθαιος (Matthaios), which was a Greek form of the Hebrew name מַתִּתְיָהוּ (Mattityahu) meaning "gift of YAHWEH". Saint Matthew, also called Levi, was one of the twelve apostles. He was a tax collector, and supposedly the author of the first Gospel in the New Testament. As an English name, Matthew has been in use since the Middle Ages.

thank you.

NATALIE
Gender: Feminine

Usage: French, English, German

Pronounced: nat-a-LEE (French), NAD-ə-lee (English), NAH-tah-lee (German) [key]

From the Late Latin name Natalia, which meant "Christmas Day" from Latin natale domini. This was the name of the wife of the 4th-century martyr Saint Adrian of Nicomedia. She is venerated as a saint in the Orthodox Church, and the name has traditionally been more common among Eastern Christians than those in the West. It was popularized in America by actress Natalie Wood (1938-1981), who was born to Russian immigrants.
