It's Wellington. Yeah, like New Zealand's capital name... I know that is mostly used in english as a surname, but in my country it's a first name (although not very common, it's a little "exotic") I like it, especially because of its Anglo-Saxon origins
my given name was Ishikawa Maru (i'm not pure Jp tbh...i'm half..) but since i was adopted and live in Indonesia 17 years long (i'm 18 now.. ), i have Indonesian name..it's Damar..taken from my previous name don't ask what's that means..i don't know
My real name is Lucy and it wasn't really chosen for any particular reason ^o^' I guess my equivalent name in Japanese would be something like Hikaru :3
Really? In my country its not that rare but you don't listen it too often. I was born in february too lol
My name is Tsahai-Brianna. Two names in one like Mary jane or Mary-Kate. Tsahai is a family name that has spanned through my mom side of the family. My mom is Jamaican and British. My name has been pass down through my mom Bristish andcestors and she is the first of the Jamican born heir to recieve this name. i am the firt of the American born heir to recieve this name and that is special since I am the first of my family to have this name as my first name. My mom had this name as her middle name. It is pronounced as (Tish-Shy) Brianna <----in this spelling is celtic and means virtuous and strong. This name represents my Puerto-Rican hispanic side. Both my names are cutural and I was name being my parents first born child to represent not only the love of their heritage but also out of love and thought lol Plus my parents did not want to lose the fight. Dad wanted to name me Brianna (he is Puerto-Rican and guyanese (south American) full hispanic) and Mom wanted to name me Tsahai.
My name is Laura, but please not with the English pronounciation . The correct pronounciation is the one with the "wow/cow" sound.
My name is Ashley and I'm so happy it's not Ashlee, Ashli, Ashleigh, etc. Basically it means that ^. I used to have a teacher in HS that would come up to me and go "ASHLAY~~~" in a southern accent because of Gone With The Wind. He was a good teacher!
My name is Bruno. It means "dark skinned"/"brown haired" but I'm actually very white and I'm blonde lol
Oh... give me five, Nizam!! My (first) name is Muhammad Nur Hidayat it is also taken from Arabic.. but I don't know and don't want to know Arabic... [shake] "Muhammad" is our prophet's name.... you can do a Google search... "Nur" literally means "light" "Hidayat" came from Arabic "Hidayah" but the t/h is changeable even though quite far, it's just differ by romanization system (just like "RA" and "LA" for ラ in Japanese) if I not mistaken, it means "Good message" or something like that... It's cannot be 100% translated so it is kept as Hidayah in Malaysian language and maybe English.... Anyway, my last name (last name called as "nasab" here) is kept secret...
Names always have meaning, even if people have forgotten what they mean. Laurentius is Latin and means "from Laurentum", an ancient city near Rome. The name of the city itself comes from the Latin word laurus which means "laurel". By the way this is a pretty good website to find the meaning of names: http://www.behindthename.com/
