1) meaning "Gomeric's mountain" in French, Gomeric being a Germanic personal name meaning "man power".

2) Defined by dictionary.com as "an adult male person, as distinguished from a boy or a woman." (Thats right. My middle name is Man.)

3) From the Hebrew name ùÑÀîåÌàÅì (Shemu'el) which could mean either "name of God" or "God has heard".

4) Sort of like an Arabic governor but means "lord" in Farsi and "prince" in Persian.

5) A derevation of the Germanic term for "Holy Brooke"

... I have no idea what that makes me.

Without giving away an exact translation (lol and thus revealing my real name) I come up with something like "Healer of the wounds inflicted" - the implication being that I inflict the wounds then heal them.

Nice.

My first name is a Hebrew name that means God's Gift

My middle name is an Irish name that means "leader of priests"


which is fitting since I'm descended from the tribe of Levi, the priests of Biblical times

Named after an Indian god... and you are really thick if you can't get the country of origin.

Sean is my real name (and if you notice my character over in the cyberpunk RPG, you now know how lazy i can be), which is the anglicized form of the Irish form of John which means "God is Gracious" in a nutshell

however, I have an uncle named John, my grandfather is named John, and his father was named John... Sean works out

'Christ-bearer' *rolls eyes* Not that I'm religious really, but I was kind of miffed when St.Christopher was demoted to not being a proper saint.

For a long time, I though my name meant "kettle". That was a bit depressing, and kept me away from looking further into the origins of my name. However, I later found out that it didn't mean just *any* kettle, oh no, it means a sacrifical kettle, the one you pour the blood of the sacrificed pigs or slaves into. That made me feel better.

It can also mean helmet.

As for my last name, nobody knows what it means since it is derived from really old english, but it can either mean "shining lake" or "little boy", depending on how you look at it...

"Paul" means "small". Not "small, humble" or anything like that. Just... small.
actually if you look at the meaning of it humble would fit as well, there is no latin word for humble tho paulus would fit very well

William - from the German "Wilhelm" meaning "the desire to protect".
Oddly enough that is nothing like me at all. And my last name is Leaf in the chinese definition.

According to Wikipedia (and a keyring I had when I was a kid) my first name is explained:

"Luke is derived from the name of a region in Italy, Lucania, through the Greek "Loukas", meaning "a native of Lucania".

My middle name means: 'Gift of God'

According to geneological research my surname is derived from an area of land in the north of England which used to be owned by my family (before King Richard II was deposed and my family was stripped of their lands and titles for supporting him).

So there you go.
