Well someone already said my name, cause it's so bloody popular but Ryan also means "that which is worshipped."

So what are you all waiting for, then? Start worshipping me!

Full name: "Who is like God", "Beloved one", "Raven".
So I'm a beloved, God-like raven.

Sounds like the beginnings of a seriously trippy anime.

Well if I am to believe wikipedia my name means famous warrior. (Lewis)
However, if I am to believe urbandictionary (which of course I do) Lewis means:

An extremly rare type of person that you would be lucky to meet in your lifetime, similar to Moltres. One of the few people to have actually owned their C all through high school. When not saving African children or discovering new elements, Lewii (the plural form of Lewis) can be found skiing-or as they might refer to it "shredding the g-nar". The only down side is a Lewis can be exasperating at times.

Alia, a word used for the one who calls those to prayer in the Moslum faith. Or so I've been told. Funnily enough my mother and I are Wiccan (non new age),my dad's Jewish and my godfather is Christian.

My first names is James and it means supplanter - one who wrongfully or illegally seizes and holds the place of another. It's hebrew, not many people know that though.

Lance - A long spear.......LADIES ;)

Then again, my full name is Lancelot, so I'm also a legendary Arthurian knight who wields a long spear. Fuck, I love my name.

My name is Jewish meaning God is watching and woo my name was used in the merchant of venice which made the name popular.
My last name means John so my full name is... "God is watching John".
I'm finding this amusing.

Ok George. Let's see where that derives from.

George or Γεώργιος in greek means the one preoccupied with the land's agriculture. It is a compound word which results from two smaller ones, Γεω which is latin for Geo meaning earth and εργον (ergon) meaning work. The guy that makes my name awesome is Saint George. Firstly, he is a martyr and if that isn't enough for you, he might just be the first dragonkiller in history. Not to mention his lance's name. Ascalon. Beat that.

From Behind the Name [http://www.behindthename.com/]:


CHRISTOPHER

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English

Pronounced: KRIS-tə-fər [key]
From the Late Greek name Χριστοφορος (Christophoros) meaning "bearing Christ", derived from Χριστος (Christos) combined with φερω (phero) "to bear, to carry". It was used by early Christians as a metaphorical name, expressing that they carried Christ in their hearts. In the Middle Ages, literal interpretations of the name's etymology led to legends about a Saint Christopher who carried the young Jesus across a river. He has come to be regarded as the patron saint of travellers.

As an English given name, Christopher has been in general use since the 15th century. In Denmark it was borne by three kings (their names are usually spelled Christoffer), including the 15th-century Christopher of Bavaria who also ruled Norway and Sweden. Other famous bearers include Italian explorer Christopher Columbus (1451-1506), English playwright Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593), and the fictional character Christopher Robin from A. A. Milne's 'Winnie-the-Pooh' books.
Well not much for me to say, eh. That summed it up well, and I learned something.

I've got a necklace with Saint Christopher on it, but I'm not big into mens jewlery, so it sits in my drawer, protecting my drawer in case it ever goes travelling.

I have no idea.
Jamie is pretty boring anyway.

EDIT: Wikipedia says it's a pet form of James and it is Hebrew.
Well I share the same first name, as Sasquatch99, so this is pretty much my answer.
